I am writing to support Maureen Jones and Elizabeth Baker for the School Board. They are thoughtful, committed, and involved community members who have incredibly valuable insights about the current state of education in the South Orange Maplewood School District. They are both interested in supporting policies that benefit all the students in our district and they understand the specific challenges we face.
They are intent on creating a school district that works for every member of our diverse student body and they understand that achieving this requires thoughtful collaboration between the Board of Education, the administration, our teachers and our community.
They are eager to find new and creative ways for the various stakeholders in our district to work together productively, and they are determined to do the challenging work necessary to move forward and create an environment in which every student’s needs are met.
Sincerely,
Cecelia A. Cancellaro
Maplewood
