UPDATE: McKenna and Mcdhedlishvilli Use Private and Confidential Ridgewood School Directory for Campaign Purposes

thumbnail 480C1FF2 E36F 46FE 8DD2 CD44CD10EFE9 Copy

Hi! It’s come to my attention that a post on your blog accuses myself and Julie Mchedlishvili of using HSA mailing lists for our tiny 400-person newsletter, and that this information has been spread on social media.

This is completely untrue. I have no access to any HSA mailing lists. The names on this 400-person list came from our gmail contact list of friends, family, and people who may have been included in joint emails in the past. One person asked to be removed from the list today, we apologized, and we quickly accommodated his request.

I would appreciate your help in keeping information on the Internet truthful and accurate. Thank you, Laura McKenna
