Burgoyne declined to leave the board even though he faced dozens of calls for his resignation, including two from fellow board members. He stepped down from the board’s Harassment, Intimidation and Bullying Committee before the public meeting, said Paul Rubacky, the board president.
Eileen Camporeale, president of the Ringwood Education Association, said Burgoyne’s comments were not befitting a trustee, but she stopped short of asking him to resign. Rather, the fourth-grade teacher said the association is “hopeful meaningful change can come from this experience.”
“If he resigns, it won t change the fact that there is more work to do,” Camporeale said.
