Political beliefs in schools – KADAKIA + COHEN + CORRARO

We are deeply grateful for the trust and support you’ve shown in this election. On behalf of Brian and myself, we’re honored to serve the community as part of a Board committed to educational excellence for our students. Together, we can build a strong foundation rooted in transparency, accountability, and a shared vision for our schools. We’ve already reached out to the Board and district leadership to start building that partnership! We look forward to working with the continuing board members, including Danielle Bellomo, following her successful election last night.

We also look forward to working closely with our community and families, exploring new ways to foster positive, productive relationships with everyone who cares so deeply about our children’s future.

Lastly, Brian and I are saddened that Nirav won’t be joining us on this journey next year, but we’ll carry forward his commitment and vision in our work. We’re encouraged by his dedication to the success of all Marlboro students. Thank you, Nirav, for being such a driving force in the Partners Improving Education campaign.

Political beliefs in schools

August 2, 2024

The question from our community:

What are your opinions on students knowing teachers’ political beliefs?

We think schools should be neutral and welcoming spaces where students feel safe sharing their own thoughts and beliefs. Teachers, like everyone, have their personal political views, but it’s crucial they stay professional and impartial in the classroom. The main goal should be to encourage critical and independent thinking and respectful discussions among students, without pushing personal political views on them.
