Westmore News columnist Dick Hubert asked Blind Brook Schools Superintendent Dr. Colin Byrne to comment on the column I penned on the New York State Board of Regents’ proposed changes in graduation requirements, to be voted on at the Regents’ Nov. 4-5 board meeting. Dr. Byrne’s email is followed by my responses.
