Moore Appoints Two New People, Reappoints Current Member to Blueprint Board

Two newcomers and an old hand will fill three open seats on the seven-member board that oversees the multibillion-dollar Blueprint for Maryland’s Future education reform plan, as the program enters its fourth year of implementation.

Gov. Wes Moore on Wednesday appointed Contina Quick-McQueen and Robin Werner and reappointed Joseph Manko to the Accountability and Implementation Board for terms of six years. The three were chosen from six finalists out of field of 36 applicants.

Their appointments must be approved by the Senate in the legislative session that begins in January, but they can serve in an acting capacity until then. The board is not meeting this month, but will meet next on Sept. 18.
