Support the SBNC By Voting on Tuesday January 17th

Dear Scarsdale 10583: The elections for the Scarsdale School Board Nominating Committee are Tuesday, January 17 at the SMS Auditorium Lobby from 7-10am from 2-9 am. Here are two good reasons for Scarsdalians to vote in this election.

The goal of the SBNC is worth supporting. The committee’s mission is to find the most qualified, broad-minded candidates to serve as volunteers on our School Board. The non-partisan system was implemented for the Schools in 1965, and the committee has had a very strong track record ever since. The quality of our school board members has been excellent and has, in turn, fostered the excellence of our school system.

The process of the SBNC is very inclusive. The SBNC and its subcommittees include almost 60 members. All community members are invited to run as a SBNC candidate and the members of the SBNC are voted in through a contested election. In addition, the committee welcomes all community suggestions for Board of Education candidates. Finally, the community again votes in these Board of Ed candidates (and any others that run outside the system) at the school elections in May.

Please show your support for the SBNC’s inclusive process aimed at finding fair-minded, qualified candidates. Vote on January 17.

Nan Berke and Michael Pollack
SBNC Administrative Committee Co-Chairs
