Photo of the Day: Protesters Plaster Posters at BOE

Did the school superintendent see the signs of protest with his morning coffee?

That was the hope of some students who say they papered the Board of Education offices on Memorial Day with posters demanding tenure for two social studies teachers at South Orange Middle School.

“We want to show the members that we haven’t and won’t give up,” said one of the student leaders in a message to Patch. 

Last week, the administration met with the Home and School Association (HSA) to “help the recent controversy,” according to a statement released by on Thursday.

No word yet on what the reaction was at the Central Office. The posters remained up overnight and were still posted around 7:30 a.m. Tuesday.
