    Oh no, Angela, please don’t go. Of course, you need to do what’s best for you and your family, but you will be missed. The next Ward 3 School Committee member has BIG shoes to fill. Thank you for your dedicated service, voice of reason, and passion for excellence.

    I am sorry to hear this. Our school committee needs strong and diverse leaders, and Angela’s vision will be missed.

    I am so sorry to hear this! I have respected her decisions and how she doesn’t block vote with the crowd. Her insight will be missed.

    She’s smart, and grounded, and honest, and well reasoned. A real loss for the city. We need more folks like Angela to get involved in the process. Best wishes for your new found free time, Angela!

    Really a big loss to the city. Angela is a wonderful person and thoughtful public servant. I’m sure she will enjoy the newfound free time but here’s hoping she finds another way to share her talents with the community.
