Letter: Bronxville's Double Standard BRONXVILLE, N.Y. -- The Bronxville Daily Voice accepts signed letters to the editor. Please send letters to bronxville@dailyvoice.com. To the Editor, There is a dangerous double standard going on in Bronxville that needs to be addressed and corrected.

Letter: Eastchester Public Schools And The Education Bill EASTCHESTER, N.Y. -- The Eastchester Daily Voice accepts signed letters to the editor. Please send letters to eastchester@dailyvoice.com. Dear Eastchester Parents and Guardians, You have undoubtedly heard a lot in recent months about testing and teacher evaluations. While both are essential to ensuring a proper education, it is my belief that the New York State Department of Education is setting regulations in place that will not have the desired outcome. I recently attended a meeting with 40 other regional superintendents with the goal of calling on the governor and legislature to a…
