New board officers elected this morning

Karla Silvestre is the new president, Shebra Evans is the new vice president

Was it unanimous? Am thinking Rebecca Smondrowski has seniority, and it should have been her. And, she is known for pushing back on MCPS - maybe more of the same old, same old with Silvestri and Evans

Yes, it was unanimous for president. It's traditional that the vice president is the next one elected president. Silvestre had been the vice president for the past two years. Smondrowski did receive two votes to be the next vice president, but Evans received six.

Too bad. I like Smondrowski. Unfortunately, I don't think she gets the respect that she deserves because she does push back and questions a lot of things (which is good).
