Lee Goldstein has been active in education, all her life.
A graduate of Yale University, she is a former high school English teacher and professional writer/editor.
Lee served on the Bedford, New York Board of Education. When she moved to Westport Lee became active in the elementary, middle and high school PTAs.
She now chairs Westport’s Board of Education.
The other day, Lee and I chatted at the Westport Library. Our “06880” podcast discussion ranged from local BOE issues (a new school, redistricting, curriculum, library books, cellphones, etc.) to education in general, and life in Westport.
Click below, to hear her ideas, insights, and thoughts on what’s ahead.
Lee is the best! Such a smart and devoted public servant. We are all lucky to have her.
Excellent interview of a talented and organized Chairperson. Yes we are lucky to have Lee.
Why did she think it was funny when Tom Scarice said that “he had a chainsaw” when they were emailing about the Westport Community Gardens and Long Lots Preserve more than a year before their plans became public? And she pretended to not understand the actions of the Long Lots School (and Soccer Field) Building Committee?
She’s duplicitous. Let’s not pretend for a second that screwing residents who are paying her bills is somehow virtuous. She sold her soul to the MAGA First Selectwoman. But she seems to be getting what she wants, so I guess it’s okay.
