LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Winslow Schools

On Feb. 6, Winslow school board members Pat Parker, Deborah Yanez, Krista Ventura, Robert Pupchick and Michael Robb voted to appoint Barry Wright to fill a vacancy on the school board.

Wright was defeated in the Winslow municipal election in November. During his campaign, he allegedly rode a golf cart on public roads to solicit votes -- which is illegal. Should Wright be representing our children? I think not.

Parker claimed the current recall of her position is politically motivated. Why then did she and her fellow board members appoint Wright to fill the vacancy when he has direct connections to the Democratic Party? It appears Parker has a double standard.

It is time for this board of education to do what's right for the children and put its personal and political agendas aside.
