Here's all the information anyone would need to choose the most prepared, competent andRead More knowledgeable candidate. Watch the debate for yourself: http://vimeo.com/65783040

Thank you, Mr. Cole. I have no need of convincing. Mrs. Brakewood has distinguished herself as aRead More private citizen, a tireless school volunteer, and as an effective board member. Other communities wish for such a generous soul. Mr. Carriere may, in fact, be a very pleasant and admired friend to many, but his performance at the debate was cringingly embarrassing. I actually felt for the poor man because he was clearly at a complete loss ... and tried to rely on the power of his personality instead of concrete knowledge of the PC schools. It failed miserably. Those who goaded Mr. Carriere into this race can't possibly be his friends. Friends would never be so cruel as to expose someone to such total embarrassment.

Linda T., I would guess Mrs. Brakewood lives in Port Chester if she is running for the Port ChesterRead More Board of Ed. Even if the schools had to impose an austerity budget, your taxes would still go up. The state has more control in these matters than you think.

Linda, the per pupil expenditure in PC schools is the lowest in Westchester and Rockland countiesRead More ... by about $2,000 per student. The issue is two fold. First, our property values are not as strong as our neighbors, so our homes have a higher levy in order to fund the schools. Second, and more important, is that the reliance on property taxes slams moderate income communities like PC. We need for the state to move to an income tax to fund schools. Scream at your legislators ... not the BoE.

I am concerned there is not enough attention to detail in the BOE budget overall and Mrs. BrakewoodRead More comment about keeping taxes affordable ... where does she live ? they are out of control and in my opinion the money we pay for taxes we should have the best looking schools anywhere ... just my opinion
