Clayton Public Schools is proud to announce that our Business Administrator Frances Adler has been selected as a recipient of the New Jersey Association of School Business Officials (NJASBO) Distinguished Service Award. This statewide recognition honors school business officials who demonstrate outstanding leadership, service, and commitment to public education.
The NJASBO Distinguished Service Award recognizes individuals who make significant contributions to their school districts through strong leadership, responsible fiscal management, and dedication to supporting students and staff.
Adler will be formally recognized at the NJASBO Annual Conference on June 3, 2026, at the Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City.
"Fran truly cares about the students and staff here in Clayton,” said Superintendent Nikolaos Koutsogiannis. “She is a strong advocate for our district and is always willing to go the extra mile to support our schools. Fran brings creativity, dedication, and heart to her work every day, and we’re very proud to see her recognized with this honor.”
As part of the award, Adler will also have the opportunity to select a New Jersey public high school graduating senior to receive a $1,000 scholarship awarded in her honor.
Clayton Public Schools congratulates Ms. Adler on this well-deserved recognition and thanks her for her continued leadership and service to the Clayton community.
