Frederick Rodriguez is running for the North Haven Board of Education (BOE), and I am very pleased to write a letter of support for him. Frederick and his spouse have lived in North Haven for 13 years and have two children who attend North Haven public schools. Frederick is highly active in his community, serving on the Ridge Road School PTA and diversity committees and as the vice-chair of the Democratic Town Committee.

Frederick has 17 years of experience in education and is deeply passionate about teaching. Currently, he serves as an adjunct professor teaching graduate and undergraduate students in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering and Computer Science at the University of New Haven.

Frederick’s goals while serving on the BOE will include improving education both inside and outside of the classroom, implementing transparent policies for technology and education, ensuring transparency so the public is aware of board discussions, and advocating for a budget that addresses the diverse needs of students.

I encourage all registered democrats to vote for Frederick Rodriguez in the primary election on Tuesday, Sept. 12. He will advise and work with fellow board members to give North Haven students the best chance for future success.
