Greenfield School Board Will Have One New Face

But no campaign will be necessary as only two candidates, including incumbent Rick Moze, declared their candidacy for the two available seats.

 

 

Incumbent Rick Moze and political activist Robert Hansen were the only two residents to throw their names into the Greenfield School Board race this spring.

And the two available seats are theirs.

Moze was elected to the board in 2009 but lost a re-election bid in April 2012. He returned to the board in August, however, when board members voted him in to replace Dave Richlen.

Hansen is the co-chair of the Progressive Democrats of America in Milwaukee County.

The deadline to file for candidacy was 5 p.m. Jan. 2.

Incumbent Don Carlson, a former city alderman, decided not to run last month. Carlson was the top vote-getter in the 2010 race and served one term with the board.

The term of office is three years beginning on April 22. Annual compensation is $4,200.

Any Board that continues to support the current Central Office administration needs to have a change come their way. The damage that is being done will cost a generation of Greenfield kids.

While we don't always agree with all of the decisions of the School Board, the entire Board has done a great job in tough times for schools. It would be nice to have a better Superintendant who cared about the District as much as himself.

There are a lot of things that need to be looked at and fixed in the district. I look forward to working with the rest of the board, parents, teachers, and tax payers to find the solutions that will lead our children to the best possible success in life. Nothing is more important for our community and our economy.

Robert...if you want to make a difference start by getting rid of the current Central Office admins. it is a mess to say the least. Investigate what really is going on behind the scenes. There are people who know the true story. It is really bad and the kids in the GSD are suffering.

@John Seymour, oversight of the Central Office is long overdue, and because of that, much needs to be done there. I couldn't agree with you more. Please join my page on facebook and feel free to send me any concerns you have. http://www.facebook.com/RobertHansenForGreenfieldSchoolBoard
