Agency Dkt. No. 287-11/18
In the Matter of Michael Stasi, 	:
Red Bank Charter School, 	: 	Commissioner of Education
Monmouth County. 	: 	Decision
:
The Commissioner has reviewed the record of this matter and the decision of the
School Ethics Commission (SEC) – finding that respondent violated the School Ethics Act for
failure to timely complete charter school trustee training in accordance with N.J.S.A. 18A:12-33,
N.J.A.C. 6A:28-4.1, and N.J.A.C. 6A:11-3.1. The SEC’s decision was forwarded to the
Commissioner 	for 	final 	determination 	on 	the 	recommended 	penalty pursuant 	to 	N.J.S.A.
18A:1229(c). The SEC advises that respondent ultimately completed the training after the issuance
of its October 30, 2018 Order to Show Cause, but prior to the SEC’s November 27, 2018 meeting;
therefore, the SEC recommends a penalty of reprimand. 	Respondent filed exceptions to the
recommended penalty, apologizing for disregarding the SEC’s notices, and explaining that his
recent move out of state was likely the reason the SEC’s notices went unanswered. Respondent
did not institute an appeal, pursuant to N.J.A.C. 6A:4-1 et seq., of the SEC’s underlying finding of
violation.
Upon review, the Commissioner does not find respondent’s exceptions to be
persuasive. 	Instead, the Commissioner concurs with the penalty recommended by the SEC for
respondent’s failure to timely honor an obligation placed upon charter school trustees by law.
Additionally, respondent is admonished for causing the unnecessary expenditure of administrative
and adjudicative resources at both State and local levels.

Accordingly, respondent is hereby reprimanded as a school official found to have violated the
School Ethics Act.
IT IS SO ORDERED.1
