• Jennifer Solot, who has served five years on the school board for the Upper Moreland School District, has resigned after saying that she opposed voting for a “cis white male” as board president.
• Solot’s remark came as the board was considering electing two individuals: April Stainback and Greg D’Elia, as the new president.
• “I believe that Mr. D’Elia would make an excellent president,” Solot said at the meeting. “However, I feel that electing the only cis white male on this board president of this district sends the wrong message to our community: a message that is contrary to what we as a board have been trying to accomplish.”
