Are You the One, Two, Three for the BOE?

As Plainfield begins to embark upon its own version of change via the upcoming election for 3 BOE positions, I wanted to share some information from the New Jersey School Board Association regarding frequently asked questions, guidelines and responsibilities for these elected positions.

The following link provides an excellent overview of the job requirements for those of you considering this extensive and worthwhile community role: http://www.njsba.org/candidacy/candkit09%20lnk1.pdf

Equally important is the ETHICS doctrine that outlines State and Fed requirements with regard to the conduct of BOE members: http://www.njsba.org/candidacy/ (Select: Notice New Jersey School Ethics Act)

The March 2, Deadline for petitions is fast approaching. Let's Go Plainfield! It's time to PEP it UP!!!

I look forward to the list of candidacies and subsequent Debates and/or Forums!
