Candidates for School Board light it up on Girard at Large TV

Posted by Rich Girard | Oct 23, 2025 | GAL-TV | 0 |

School Board candidates Melodye Smith (Ward 2), Cali Rojas (Ward 3), Mark Millet (Ward 5) and Malinda McCusker (Ward 8) join host Rich Girard and light it up about the state of Manchester’s schools. This was a lot of fun and they were unafraid to call out the madness on the school board. PLUS, we have unbelievable updates on Picklegate, panhandling, Lice, Mice and Cockroaches at Hillside, and we expose Ward 1 aldermanic candidate Bryce Kaw-uh push to circumvent neighborhood opposition to zoning changes at the Sununu Center that threaten their neighborhood’s quality of life. All that and OOOHHH sooo much more, be sure to tune in!
