Hartford Board of Education appoints three new members Jessika Harkay, Hartford Courant
Making parents feel heard, breaking barriers and ensuring experiences aren’t repeated are some of the goals the three new Hartford Board of Education appointees hope to instill.
Yvette Bello, Pastor AJ Johnson and James Shmerling have been appointed to fill three board positions on the nine-member board. Eight of the nine representatives are people of color, reflecting the community it serves where 92% of students in the Hartford Public Schools District don’t identify as white.
The three members were appointed at the City Council meeting Monday and will be sworn in as board members on May 18.
