Forum: Bridgeport school board members seek positive dialogue

On Feb. 5, the Bridgeport Board of Education held a special meeting to discuss and possibly act on a series of Community Conversations related to Bridgeport Public Schools’ projected 2019-2020 budgetary shortfall, currently anticipated to be in the order of magnitude of $21 million. In the end, a vote was taken to cancel the remaining forums, which has resulted in a degree of concern from some that the public has been shut out of the BOE’s budgetary process. As the five board members who voted in favor of canceling the remaining forums (John Weldon, Jessica Martinez, Sybil Allen, Hernan Illingworth and Chris Taylor), we wanted to provide some perspective to why we took the action we did.
