"Letter to Editor" School Comm Candidates for Re-election

"Dear Editor,

As school committee members, parents and residents of Medfield, we are humbled and inspired at how our community has come together to meet the challenges of the Covid-19 crisis. We could not be more proud to have our names on the ballot for re-election to the school committee on May 4th.

We want to convey that we are as dedicated and energized to serve as we were three years ago. Our past experience and the relationships we have built with parents, school leadership and teachers will be needed more than ever as we face the uncertainties the current environment has thrust upon us. Despite these challenges, there still are many exciting things happening in the district, including planning for a new Dale Street School.

We would appreciate your support this election. While so many of our most valued activities are on hold, our ability to vote remains available! We encourage you to consider absentee voting as the safest option.

To receive an absentee ballot:

1. Download the application for absentee voting here
2. Email your signed copy to the assistant town clerk, Marion Bonoldi at mbonoldi@medfield.net, OR leave it in the green town drop box behind town hall, OR mail it to “Town Clerk, 459 Main Street, Medfield, MA 02052” by Friday, May 1 at 12:00 p.m. 3.
   
3. Once you receive your ballot by mail, you may drop it in the green drop box behind town hall or mail it to the town clerk at the address above, as long as it is received by 8 p.m. Monday, May 4.

It is more important than ever that we hear from the community. Please keep reaching out to us with your feedback. The more we know, the better we do. Our doors are always open to listen and learn."

Thank you for your consideration,
