Brueggemann for School Board

As I’ve been telling people that Don Bruggeman is seeking a seat on the Concord School Board, a constant refrain I hear is “I know Don!” No surprise. Don has lived and worked in Concord for more than 50 years. His daughter attended Concord schools all 12 years, and he is a highly respected member of our community. Having managed the (Bagel) Works on Main Street for many years, he understands budgets, employment and facilities. Having served three terms in the New Hampshire House of Representatives, he understands that good governance requires listening to and cooperating with people of differing viewpoints in order to balance the interests of the wider community. Don is enthusiastic about Concord schools, and he believes that they can even be better with improved openness, accountability, community engagement and fiscal balance. Don will be a valuable school board member, and I urge you to join me in voting for Don Brueggemann on Nov. 3.
