MEREDITH — The Inter-Lakes School Board will recommend that Major LaRowe, a retired colonel in the United States Army, be appointed to a seat on the board reserved to Sandwich. The position fell vacant with the resignation of John Martin, who accepted a position with the Plymouth School District.
Superintendent Mary Ellen Ormond said yesterday that LaRowe, the lone applicant for the position, will meet next week with the board, which will recommend his appointment to the Sandwich Board of Selectmen.
A pilot of 24 years, LaRowe earned bachelor's degrees in both education an aviation aviation technology at the University of Montana as well as master's degrees in aeronautical engineering, public administration and national security strategy. He also attended the Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
"We are very fortunate to have Major LaRowe step forward," said Ormond. "He has led a life of service to his country and his community and we are especially grateful that he has chosen to join our school board."
