The Ridgewood Board of Education (BOE) has a new member.
In order to fill the vacancy created when longtime trustee Michele Lenhard submitted her resignation this past summer, board members interviewed six candidates at a meeting last month.
The decision came down to two candidates – Nicole Richards and Jennie Smith Wilson – with Smith Wilson eventually being selected during a special BOE meeting on Thursday.
Smith Wilson is currently a member of the Zoning Board of Adjustment and the Ridgewood Education Foundation.
During the public interview, Smith Wilson said she would be able to utilize her 25 years of advertising experience to improve the flow of communication between the board and the community.
“I often hear or see parents’ frustrations come out in BOE meetings and in social media over concerns that we could press for a better process of communication, and I think that’s very important because it can distract from the issues at hand,” she said.
