Trenton School Board Changes

Trenton Mayor Tony Mack is replacing three members of the city school board. According to the Trenton Times, Mayor Mack’s spokesperson said,

When you have a new administration and a new mayor, it’s very beneficial for him to have an opportunity to make his own appointments, and we’re very, very excited about the enthusiasm that the candidates have all displayed thus far.

Maybe practice makes perfect. The Mayor had the opportunity to make an appointment of his Chief of Staff. He chose Paul Sigmund, who was arrested last week for possession of heroin and aggravated assault on a police officer.

Anyway, the new members are Sasa Olessi Montano, Jason Redd and Mary Taylor-Hayes. They’ll replace Harry Luna, Elizabeth Johnson and L. Diane Campbell.
