Denise Manari elected chair as East Windsor board organizes leadership
Summary
The East Windsor Board of Education elected Denise Manari as chair and named Dorian Farmer vice chair and Brand Hill secretary. The board also approved minutes and moved on to committee scheduling and reports.
The East Windsor Board of Education reorganized its leadership at the meeting, electing Denise Manari as chair after a nomination highlighting her experience and commitment to district goals. "I'd like to nominate Denise Manari to be the chair of the East Windsor Board of Education," a member said during the nomination.
Board members then closed nominations, held voice votes and signaled unanimous support for the chair position. The board subsequently nominated and approved Dorian Farmer as vice chair and Brand Hill as secretary, with members indicating unanimous consent during the roll call.
The reorganization followed the consent approval of the Nov. 12 minutes and a brief public-participation check in which a remote attendee chose not to comment. Board members said they look forward to a two-year term for the newly elected leadership and emphasized a cooperative approach, with one member saying, "the Rs and the D's are erased and we are all just one board." The board then moved on to routine agenda items including committee scheduling and reports.
The election was procedural: nominations were opened, seconded and closed, and votes were taken in open session. No formal written ballots or recorded roll-call tallies by member name were provided in the transcript; the meeting voice votes were reported as unanimous.
