Seaford School Board Seeking Applications to Fill Vacated Seat

A day after John DelGuidice’s from the Seaford Board of Education, an announcement has been posted on the school district’s website seeking a replacement for his vacated trustee position.

The announcement mentions that the Seaford Board of Education is seeking candidates to fill an interim trustee position, which would expire on May 15, 2012. The school board is hoping to receive résumés and letters of interest this month and will begin reviewing candidates at its scheduled July 20 workshop meeting. The school board is hoping to fill the interim trustee seat by Sept. 1.

DelGuidice was first elected as a Seaford school board member in 2007. He cited a disagreement with board’s decision to make Brian Fagan school board president for a second straight year as his reason for resigning. The resignation leaves the school board with four trustees during the summer months.

Anyone interested in filling the interim trustee position is encouraged to contact Seaford District Clerk Carmen Ouellette at (516) 592-4013 or couellette@mail.seaford.k12.ny.us. The qualifications for the office of member of the Board of Education are that the candidate be:

• 18 years of age or older;
• Able to read and write;
• A qualified voter of the District; and
• A resident of the Seaford School District for at least one year prior to appointment.

The July 20 Seaford Board of Education workshop meeting is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m. in the l Band Room.
