May 1st was the deadline to file petitions to run for the May 21st school board election.
At this time, Doug Brown, Rich Tortorici and Rick Smith are running. Meet the Candidates night will be May 14th.
There will be two 1/8 page advertisements in the local papers this week, one about Doug and one about Rich.
A flyer is being prepared with the same information as in the ads and will be sent to all voters just prior to the election.
We are looking into having the flyers made ready for mailing by a service, rather than by ourselves.
We need people to write letters to the editor in support of Doug and Rich, as well as reminding people to vote on May 21st.
Maureen Tracy is in charge of signs...we will post them in the same places as last year plus one or two other visible spots.
Doug Brown will be handing out flyers at Stop and Shop prior to the election.
The breakfast meeting for Realtors at Connolly School was attended by 12 people and was a great success. The 4th grade student council leaders gave the visitors a tour of the school and everyone was impressed by what they saw.
