“We can all watch the same meeting, hear the same conversation and yet come to different conclusions.
I heard a board that wants to make sure the new member has the time to do the job, they don’t want to end up with another new board member that misses meetings and doesn’t have time to serve on committees. The next board member needs to pull their weight.
You may think it’s bad that JSW and MM both served on the Foundation — I think it’s it shows a record of commitment to our schools.
We have a lot of very intelligent people in Ridgewood, I’m guessing any one of those 10 people would do a good job, just for the fact that they stepped up.
In the end though, don’t get all worked up, this appointment is only for a few months and then we will all be able to vote for the 3 open positions.
Hopefully, the other 9 who don’t get selected don’t get discouraged and give us a real choice that we haven’t had in many years due to lack of candidates.”
