When is Scarf Lady going to step down…?
never.
It’s a mafia. If you are “made” you don’t leave, not willingly.
I am very happy that the voters of RW will have choices in this election.
Thank you all for stepping up, being willing to run and being willing to serve if elected.
Yes! Great news.
“Scarf Lady?” Really. Don’t be an idiot. She is knowledgeable and volunteers her time not just on the school board but also deals with senior issues. You should be thanking her.
Bs she is a teacher’s union activist
She’s a teachers union puppet
She’s the MOST DESTUCTIVE FORCE on the Ridgewood BOE and has done more to degrade and destroy the quality of a Ridgewood education thatn anyone else in Ridgewood history.
Mostly women, hopefully very woke so we can accelerate the wonderful stuff about DEI etc. that VA , FL etc. have seen.
Lets get 2 conservatives in those seats to shield our kids from the liberal ideology and back to english, math, science and history.
Yes!!!
Do you really think there are conservative women in RW?
ABL – Anybody But Lembo
Lembo and Brogan have to go!!
Brogan.
The worst.
Too many people running…I think Lembo loses (as he should), but Dani will get in. He is a pain in the ass and a total dbag, but he is a good watchdog.
Dani has done noting to move the schools forward. His tactics are to question, attack, and abstain. waste of time.
I’m so happy that Mr. Dani is running again. He has been a clear, outspoken advocate. He is one of the best members of the board in many years.
McKenna looks really promising. You can tell she’s coming from a good place, is honest, and has significant experience in education. She’s good and knows what she’s talking about. Her boys came up through Ridgewood schools too so that’s great to see. She deserves a shot and I hope she can offer up a lot for our town.
