Freehold Regional High School District BOE Election

I am running for the Howell Township seat on FRHSD Board of Education election on November 6th as a WRITE IN candidate.  As a life long resident of Howell, I too have strong convictions to deliver a high level of education to our students while keeping our tax commitment for those services at a reasonable level. 

Absurd salary hikes, while Howell employees and residents continue to tighten their belts, are without question a slap in the face to Howell residents and taxpayers.  I am a former Board member of the Howell Township Board of Education and have a very clear picture of what is expected of a competent and responsible Board.  I am presently on the Howell Township Planning Board and am active in the Howell Historical Society as Board member as well.

Make no mistake, I will fight for the taxpayer in Howell. I have no hidden agenda nor any hidden affiliation with the FTHSD BOE.  I run for this seat by myself, and more importantly I think for myself! Every vote will be made with the information I have and not by being swayed by any faction.  TYPE IN EVELYN ODONNELL for an independent vote on the FRHS BOE.

Why just NOW is she putting this up? If she was so interested in the position why didn't she file a petition like she should have?

Hello Tom-At the time the petitions were to be filed I was under the impression a very competent candidate did in fact file. It only came to my attention a couple weeks ago that Howell DID NOT have anyone file for the vacancy. I believe that Howell needs and deserves the proper representation for the FRHSD and so I chose to become a write in candidate for that position. Although I just posted my intentions, my commitment to students and taxpayers has been long standing. I thank you for your candid question as it gave me the opportunity to address your concerns.
