Township Mayor Commended on Sandy Handling

Chatham Day School head says mayor's daily emails helped her share accurate information with her staff.

Dear Editor,

I am writing on behalf of the teachers, parents, and students of Chatham Day School to express our appreciation for the leadership of Chatham Township's Mayor, Nicole Hagner. Her grace under pressure and outstanding communication skills were readily apparent and very helpful during the aftermath of the storm disaster.

As Head of Chatham Day School, where we serve students from over 36 surrounding towns, the continuous flow of information from Mayor Hagner enabled me to keep our community informed about the power restoration status of the school. Whether the news was good or bad, she was the source for the frequent updates that I was able to share with staff, friends and families.

Although CDS was without power for two weeks, we never felt in the dark. Our thanks to Mayor Hagner for all of her efforts.
