Livingston School Board Considers Hiking Number Of Members

LIVINGSTON, NJ — Should the Livingston Board of Education have more members? That will be the topic of a virtual public forum at 6 p.m. on Monday, May 24.

Recently, the board has been discussing the possibility of increasing its size from five to seven members – or possibly nine. The “listening forum” will give the Livingston community the chance to make their voices heard on the matter, district officials said.

A link to participate in the webinar will be posted on the district website, www.livingston.org, on the day of the forum.

A representative with the New Jersey School Boards Association gave a presentation on what such a change would mean for the Livingston Public School District in March. See it here.
