Rick Moze Rejoins the Greenfield School Board

The current six members selected him over Brandon Rosner and Paul Palama at a special meeting Monday.

The vote for Dave Richlen’s replacement on the Greenfield School Board came down to experience versus fresh perspective. And experience won out. Former board member Rick Moze was chosen by the six-member school board at a special meeting Monday. Moze collected four votes and Brandon Rosner two. Paul Palama did not receive a vote. Moze will finish Richlen’s term, which expires in April 2013. Richlen resigned in June when he and his family moved to Franklin. Moze finished fourth in the April election behind Cathy Walsh, Russ Spahn and Len Cich, but returns to the board after a four-month hiatus. “I know what’s happening in the district and don’t need to be brought up to speed,” Moze told the six-member board during Monday’s interview process…

Thank you GSB. I cannot think of anyone who has kept himself more aware of the activities in the district than Rick Moze. He has attended board meetings as a citizen, worked with the Greenfield Foundation and communicated often with the district parents. He was clearly the best candidate.   more ›

Who Should Be the Next Greenfield School Board Member?

The Greenfield School Board is expecting to name a replacement for Dave Richlen on Monday. Who would be your choice?

On Monday, the Greenfield School Board is expected to vote in a new member, filling the vacancy created when Dave Richlen resigned in June. The three candidates - Paul Palama, Rick Moze and Brandon Rosner - will be interviewed by the existing six board members, and a vote will follow. In April, Palama and Moze who were among six candidates who ran in the general election to fill three spots. Len Cich, Russ Spahn and Cathy Walsh claimed those three seats, ousting incumbent Moze in the process. Which candidate would you like to see the board choose?
