Today will be a special show and perhaps my last for several weeks as I consider a run for school board in New Rochelle. Many people have been encouraging me to run over the past year and I am now at the point of giving it serious consideration. The filing deadline is next Wednesday so if I decide to run I will not be able to host a show on WVOX as an active candidate for elective office.
I intend to use today’s show to discuss why I am considering a run for school board and what I hope to accomplish should I be elected. One thing is for sure, I would be giving up some degree of freedom to report on certain matters within the district that our discussed in Executive Session but I am under the distinct impression that much of my reporting on incidents and problems at the schools are not being shared by the Superintendent with the Board of Education anyway so this may not be much of an issue.
I want to hear from you, Talk of the Sound readers and radio show listeners so please call in share your thoughts on what you would like to see in a new school board member and how I might help bring about much needed change in the New Rochelle school system. Your calls make the show so please call the Studio line at 914-636-0110.
Listen on 1460 AM or WVIP HD-2 or on the web at wvox.com.
You can listen to Talk of the Sound live on WVOX 1460 AM, WVIP HD 2, streamed over WVOX.com, and the WVOX or WVIP iPhone Apps.
