Experience matters Editor : The choice is clear for this year’s Board of Education election. Vote for incumbents Bob Moore, Christine Geraci, Norm Hicks and Andrew Taylor. They are the
folks we see at church, at school functions, and sporting events. They are our friends and neighbors. And most importantly, they understand the role of the BOE in ensuring that our kids have the skills they need to succeed … while being fiscally responsible for our district. Vote for experience, integrity and service. Re-elect Bob Moore, Christine Geraci, Norm Hicks and Andrew Taylor on Nov. 2. Maureen McIntyre
