The only two Manhasset Board of Education candidates to submit nominating petitions to be placed on the May 19 ballot by Monday’s filing deadline are the same two who currently occupy trustee seats.
Carlo Prinzo, the board’s vice president, and Ann Marie Curd will seek additional three-year terms to the board, district officials said Tuesday.
Because neither will be formally challenged on the ballot, the League of Women Voters of Port Washington-Manhasset will not hold a candidates forum in advance of the vote.
Prinzo, the board liaison to the district’s citizens advisory committees on technology and finance as well as the non-profit Tower Foundation, has served three terms as trustee.
He is a 21-year Manhasset resident who has had two children in the Manhasset School District, one who graduated in 2013 and another currently enrolled.
Prinzo is a member of the district’s Audit Committee. His professional background is in the retail industry.
Curd, who has three children who are students in Manhasset, is the board liaison to the Citizens Advisory Committee on technology, the Coalition Against Substance Abuse, the Special Education Parent Teacher Association and the Tower Foundation.
Curd, an attorney who was first appointed to the board in 2012, is a member of the Board Policy Committee.
On May 19, voters will also decide whether to approve the district’s $90.4 million budget for the 2015-16 school year, which the board adopted during a meeting last Wednesday.
