     Senator Jack M. Martins (R-7th Senate District) recently voted to reappoint Great Neck resident Roger Tilles to the New York State Board of Regents. This will be Regent Tilles’ third term on the Board. 

     “Roger Tilles has a wealth of experience with education; he knows our schools, knows our children, and is always willing to work with everyone to give our kids the quality education they deserve. Equally as important, he has been one of the lone voices of reason on the Board in dealing with the challenges of Common Core. He gets it, and keeping his insight and perspective on the Board is critically important. I congratulate him on his reappointment and look forward to continuing to work with him,” said Senator Martins.
