A Massive Asset


Judy Barron is by far the best candidate for our Branford Board of Education (BOE). This has nothing to do with party affiliation. Judy is simply the best person to take this on.

I cannot imagine anyone who knows Judy Barron will not be voting for her. I hope to encourage those who do not know Judy to do so. If anyone were to do an online search of Judith (Judy) Barron, you would see some of her most impressive accomplishments, including recognition for her dedication, impact, and service to our community.

I have known Judy for many years and had the pleasure of collaborating with her professionally and in many volunteer realms. Numerous times throughout my work, people hear I am from Branford and ask do you know Judy Barron and I will find out yet another amazing thing about this most dynamic woman. Her impact on our community speaks for itself, and clearly, she has reached many other communities.

Judy has many years of experience running our Community Dining Room as their executive director. She is already very connected within our community and is part of the Branford Board of Education's work experience program for students who had been in special education prior to graduating high school. Additionally, I am aware of many students outside of special education she has worked with during their school years on many levels. As well as people of all ages and disciplines.

There is so much more to say, but not enough room.

I have no doubt Judy will be a massive asset and do all she can to fulfill her obligation as an elected BOE member, and as her track record shows, she will exceed all expectations.
