I have had the privilege of knowing John and his family for the past 3 years, during which time I have come to respect him immensely both on a personal and professional level.  John is one of the most committed , compassionate and hard working individuals I have come across. As an ardent support of our school and our broader community, I can’t think of a more dedicated and qualified individual to represent us on the Board of Education. His candidacy is our town’s privilege. For those of you who haven’t had the opportunity to meet John, I urge you to get to know him or visit his website at www.westfallkwongforboe.com

Sincerely,

Murali Ganti
