Fourteen years ago, Mr. Michael J. Smith, decided to run for the school board and has been on it ever since.
Mr. Ronald Koch sought a seat on the board and then ran for reelection once his first term was done. He has served a total of eight years.
Both men decided not to seek reelection this past November and their terms will expire at the end of this year. The December 17th Committee of the Whole meeting will be their final official Bedford Public Schools Board of Education meeting.
We would like to thank them for their many years of service to the district. Many of those years have been spent in leadership roles on the board. We appreciate the time they have devoted in carrying out the work of the board and we are grateful for their dedication to our schools, our students and staff, and our community.
Thank you, Mr. Smith and Mr. Koch!
