2016-2017 School Year
As a long time union delegate, that has worked 17 out of 19 years without a contract, I find it absolutely deplorable and insulting that my daughter's 5th grade teacher wore his bright orange "contract = respect" shirt for their class picture. I understand all aspects of union protest. They want to wear their shirts to the concerts, fall festival, every Friday at school etc. go right ahead. These pictures are supposed to be a lifetime memory for the children. Instead, my daughter's picture that we paid hard earned money for is a union statement. As a union supporter, I feel this was done in poor taste, was totally disrespectful to the children and their families, and has ruined their class picture. (10/27/16)

2014-2015 School Year
Given the inordinate amount of classroom time students in grades 3-8 have lost due to excessive testing will the WB district join our neighboring districts in not administering the stand alone field tests scheduled for June? At the HS level? (5/18/15)
Dr. Farrelly, I am reaching out to you to request that prior to the BOE "Meet the Candidates" night our district can post on the school website a profile of each candidate. As many parents will not be able to attend the one informational session I feel it is in the best interest of the community to present as much information as possible. (4/23/15)
