To the Editor:

I write to ask for your support and vote on April 8 to be re-elected to the Merrimack School Board.

I have worked hard for the students, parents and taxpayers as a board member for the last three years and look forward to continuing my work there. I am most proud of reinstating the field trips for students when cuts removed them from the budget. I will ask the tough questions of the administration to insure the students and parents have a voice in the board meetings.

In addition to my two terms on the School Board, I have also served on the Merrimack School Budget Committee and other town committees, so I understand firsthand what it takes to achieve a good education while maintaining a fiscally responsible . It will benefit the students and taxpayers of our town to have an independent voice on the School Board.

Please vote April 8 for George Markwell. Thank you.

GEORGE MARKWELL

Merrimack School Board
