BOE Reorganizes

The Plainfield Board of Education will pick a new president and vice president at its annual reorganization Tuesday.

The meeting is 7 p.m. in the Plainfield High School Library, 950 Park Ave.

This is usually a brief meeting, but it is important in that the new president will set the style of leadership for the year. Recent presidents have made it a point to adhere to principles of leadership that exclude politics and hew to ideals set by the New Jersey School Board Association.

Plaintalker will be listening for clues as to how the new leadership plans to set the tone for the 2007-08 school year.
