Transparency failure at the May 26 School Board meeting: The Board approved major leadership appointments that were not listed on the public agenda. Here is what happened. 🧵 #MeetingWatch #PlainfieldNH
The published agenda listed Josie Wolfinger for nomination. Instead, the Board approved Dr. David Baker as Interim Superintendent and Paige Jarvis as Director of Student Services. Residents weren't given prior notice of these specific candidates.
This isn't just about names—it's about the right to prepare. When high-level leadership changes aren't on the agenda, the public cannot show up to ask questions or voice support/opposition before the decision is finalized.
Between off-agenda leadership moves and cutting planned restrooms from the Middle School construction project, the community needs more predictable, transparent governance. #PlainfieldSchools #Accountability https://meetingwatch.org/nh/plainfield/school-board/2026-05-26/
Transparency concerns regarding the May 26 School Board meeting: During the session, the Board approved the nominations of Dr. David Baker as Interim Superintendent and Paige Jarvis as Director of Student Services. However, these specific nominations were not included on the published public agenda, which had instead listed Josie Wolfinger. Because these names were not disclosed in advance, residents were unable to prepare or attend the meeting specifically to discuss these leadership changes. In addition to the leadership appointments, the Board provided an update on the Plainfield Middle School construction project, noting that discretionary new restrooms have been removed from the current scope to manage costs. Finally, while community members used the public comment period to raise serious questions regarding front office staffing levels, student enrollment numbers, and the impact of teacher absences, the Board did not offer a recorded response to these concerns. Residents deserve a board that not only follows the agenda but also engages directly with the issues affecting our students and classrooms. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/plainfield/school-board/2026-05-26/ #MeetingWatch #PlainfieldNH
