Who Should Be Selected as the Next School Committee and BOS Chairmen?

Selectmen will pick a new chairman on Tuesday night while the School Committee will do so on Wednesday.

One thing is for certain. The Sudbury Board of Selectmen and School Committee will each have a new leader. What isn't clear yet is who those leaders will be.

The time has come for each board to vote on its new chairman, with the School Committee set to make its decision at Wednesday's meeting.

Normally the Board of Selectmen reorganization takes place at the final night of Annual Town Meeting. However, this time around that vote will take place on Tuesday night at the board's meeting.

Following this year's election, the School Committee and Board of Selectmen each had their chairman replaced. So regardless of the vote, there will be a new chair for each group.

The decision for the Board of Selectmen will come down to Pat Brown, Bob Haarde, Larry O'Brien, Leonard Simon, or current Vice Chairman Charles Woodard.

On the School Committee side, it will either be Robert Armour, Christine Hogan, Ellen Joachim, Scott Nassa or Lucie St. George.

So we want your opinion. Who do you think should be chosen for the Board of Selectmen and School Committee chairman positions? Why do you think that person would be the best choice? What are your expectations for the new chariman? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
