JOSEPHINE MOFFETT RETIRING AS SUPERINTENDENT OF CENTRAL 7 SCHOOLS- NEW CITIZENS COMMITTEE FORMED TO PROMOTE EDUCATION

The resignation of Central 7 Schools Superintendent Josephine Moffett motivated school officials, residents and parents to form a new committee for education. The committee held its first meeting on Tuesday evening at Greenburgh Town Hall. Vic Leviatin, a retired teacher and founder of the WISE program and Harry Phillips, a Regent with the State Education Dept and Hartsdale resident, organized the committee.
Attendees discussed the quality of education at the meeting. By the end of the meeting I was convinced that the school district could become a model for the rest of the nation. If you e-mail me at pfeiner@greenburghny.com I will advise you when future meetings will be held.
Vic Leviatin is one of the most creative thinkers I have met. His vision for the school district is very inspiring. Special thanks to Vic and Harry Phillips for organizing this important initiative.

Model for the Nation? Isn't that what you said about the WestHelp partnership?

Thank you Mr. Supervisor for helping our school district. This is very much needed.

I am so glad to hear about Moffett leaving. Her egocentric adminstration has been so damaging to the district.
