Richfield School Board members Tom Flood, left, and Peter Toensing (with Superintendent Robert Slotterback, right) say their goodbyes at the board meeting Tuesday, Dec. 19. Both leave the board after four years. Flood decided not to run again. Toensing lost his seat in this November's general election.
Both men praised the quality of Richfield schools and the school staffs in comments Tuesday night. Flood suggested making a better effort to tell the district's story of success, including hiring a public relations director, would help the district convince voters to pass a tax levy increase next year.
