See Who Is Running For Parsippany Board Of Education

PARSIPPANY, NJ — The deadline to submit a petition for candidacy for New Jersey school board elections was Monday, and seven candidates are vying for three spots on the Parsippany Board of Education.

The Parsippany-Troy Hills Board of Education is a nine-member, elected volunteer board that governs the township's public school district.

Rather than managing the day-to-day operations of the schools, the board sets district policy, approves the annual budget, establishes long-term educational goals and strategic priorities, hires and evaluates the superintendent, and makes major decisions on educational, financial and personnel matters.

The Parsippany-Troy Hills School District is made up of ten elementary schools, two middle schools, and two high schools.
