MEET LEONORA CAMINITI

I served on the BOE for 10+ years, as part of several teams. While I certainly didn’t accomplish any one thing by myself, I am proud to say that I was a part of the following:

• Full day kindergarten
• Block scheduling at the high school
• Upgrading and maintenance of buildings
• One on one technology implementation
• Two strategic plans

Personally, I am a local business woman and I chair the education committee for the Monmouth County Realtors. I have trained as a NJ School Boards certified board member, and believe my commitment and attendance record was exceptional during the time I served on the Middletown BOE. I participated on all committees of the Board prior to the board becoming a committee of the whole. I have also lent my support to many educational and co-curricular events held within our schools. My goal in running again is to use my experience to reach out to the community at large to encourage more involvement in the educational process.
