Chowdhury Should Resign From Jeffco School Board

I believe everyone elected by the voters should serve with integrity. This is especially true for people representing children by serving on a school board, which includes charter school boards. In Jeffco, where I live, one of the Jeffco R-1 school board members, Vince Chowdhury, has been arrested for allegedly choking his daughter. According to media reports, Chowdhury admitted to losing his temper and slapping his 16 year old daughter.

Vince Chowdhury should resign from his position on the Jeffco School Board.

What would happen if a school teacher were arrested for domestic violence, assault and harrassment? On a minor, no less? That teacher wouldn't be in the classroom!

Elected officials responsible for making decisions on behalf of children must adhere to high moral standards. They act on behalf of tens of thousands of children every day. Our children are too precious to have someone with Chowdhury's character representing them.
