Morality and motherhood split at city school board
The Board of Education faced accusations of moral cowardice as a motion to postpone action on Mrs. Bridget C. Peixoto’s dismissal was adopted. Dr. Ira Wise urged immediate consideration, while a minority report argued teaching mothers do not impair pupil welfare and noted the need to study family income before discrimination. A separate drive sought parity of women and men on the board, with a 2 vote minority.
