Letter to the Editor: Ronan offers fresh perspective

by | Jun 8, 2020 | Letter to Editor

Oftentimes a fresh perspective is needed in local politics. I believe that Dawn Ronan can contribute to the school committee is this fashion. The concern for the students is paramount in Dawn’s reason for seeking this position. The hands-on approach and the establishment of various committees plus the fact she has had three children involved in the school system contributes to her knowledge. As a retired teacher I hope that you will support her campaign.

— Kathleen Anderson, Hopkinton (and the Ashland school system)
