BROOKFIELD - Special Board of Ed Meeting - JUNE 5

The Brookfield Board of Education will be holding a SPECIAL MEETING, this Wed., JUNE 5 at 7 p.m. in the school library/media room for "the purpose of position of superintendent of schools".   Mr. Service provided the following information, clarifying the purpose of the meeting.  There had been indications that a "decision" "might be" made at this meeting.  I have made a written request that a final "decision" not be made at the June 5 meeting --without the traditional community input. School Board meetings are open to the public and you are welcome to attend.   Following is Mr. Service's response:

"The Special Meeting on June 5th will have Mr. Howard Mettelman(Oneida BOCES District
Superintendent) making a presentation and having a discussion with the BOE about the position and vacancy of the Superintendent position effective July 1, 2013. It has recently been confirmed that the State Education Department will not allow me to continue as Superintendent of Schools beyond June 30th.

Mr. Mettelman has had numerous discussions with the BOE during the past 4 years about how to most effectively administer the District and follow all SED regulations."
