The Franklin Lakes Board of Education is hosting a "meet and greet" next week during which members of the community can meet the borough school district's incoming Superintendent.
According to an announcement from Board Vice President Shirley O'Reilly, the Board will host the event next Tuesday, May 27, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. in the FAMS Music Room.
"Please join the Board of Education...as we welcome our new Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Lydia Furnari," O'Reilly said.
Light refreshments will be served, and a regular Board meeting will immediately follow the event.
