Getting Personal With Board Of Ed Appointees

What do Gov. Neil Abercrombie's nine Hawaii State Board of Education appointees say about education?

Our new topic pages on the nominees should help you find some answers.

We've put together brief biographies and gathered each nominee's Senate testimony as well as answers to questions from Civil Beat.

We've formally asked Abercrombie's office for copies of the applications of each of the nominees, but press secretary Donalyn Dela Cruz told us she does not plan to fulfill the request until after the appointees are confirmed.

The full Senate is expected to vote on the appointees this Thursday. Pending confirmation, the new board's first meeting is scheduled for April 26.
