City school board members voted Monday to reject a request from Mayor Joyce Craig for authorization for Manchester’s new superintendent of schools to take over negotiations between the teachers union and the district, following months of contract talks without a new deal.
The request failed by one vote, with eight school board members opposed — Rich Girard, Kathleen Arnold, Lisa Freeman, Ross Terrio, Jimmy Lehoux, Art Beaudry, John Avard, and Kelly Thomas.
