The New Paltz United Teachers Executive Committee, after interviewing Don Kerr, KT Tobin Flusser and Dan Torres, has come to a unanimous decision to endorse all three candidates running for board seats in the New Paltz Central School District.
Don Kerr has been a dedicated member of the board for a number of years and has brought an open mind to change and forward movement for our district. KT has been involved in community activities and looks to encourage more interaction and communication at board meetings. Dan Torres brings a fresh look to offering programs to students of all interests and ability levels. All three candidates are determined to see the middle school become 21st-century ready to include a green construction while maintaining fiscal responsibility. Through a collaborative effort with the community, teachers and administrators each of these candidates will be a positive voice toward the continued success of student learning in our district.
The New Paltz United Teachers urges you to support the proposed 2009-2010 school budget. We believe our current school board and Superintendent Maria Rice have created a responsible budget which balances the needs of our students, staff and does its best to take into consideration these difficult financial times. We are especially appreciative of the board and the superintendent for maintaining a high-quality educational program for all our students. New Paltz United Teachers, urges you to support our budget by voting YES on May 19 and asks you to urge your friends and family of this voting community to vote YES as well.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

President, New Paltz United Teachers
