SEC Dkt. No. T39-21
Agency Dkt. No. 170-8/21
New Jersey Commissioner of Education
Final Decision
In the Matter of Lily Zou,
Princeton Charter School,
Mercer County.
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 (the
Act) for failure to timely complete board member training in accordance with N.J.S.A. 18A:12-
33 and N.J.A.C. 6A:28-4.1. Subsequent to the issuance of the SEC’s decision, the Commissioner
received information demonstrating that respondent has not been a member of the Board of
Trustees of the Princeton Charter School since 2019. Accordingly, respondent was not required
to complete board member training in 2021. Therefore, the Commissioner concludes that
respondent has not violated the School Ethics Act. The decision of the SEC is hereby reversed;
and therefore, no penalty is imposed.
IT IS SO ORDERED.1
