Cal Donnell
Treasurer

My name is Cal Donnell and I am running for the position of Treasurer for your Wyckoff Education Association. 

On both a personal and professional level, I am fully invested in the success of Wyckoff’s schools.  I have been a Wyckoff resident for 8 years. My son is a 5th grader at Washington Elementary and my daughter is an 8th grader at Eisenhower.  In addition to using the school’s services, I substituted at Lincoln, Coolidge, Sicomac, and Eisenhower prior to being hired full time.  I taught 5th grade at Coolidge for one year before being moved to my current position as an 8th grade social studies teacher at Eisenhower.  I see the WEA as an integral part of maintaining and improving the quality of education in our schools.

Prior to entering the world of teaching via the MAT program at Montclair State University, I used my undergraduate degree in Economics Management and Finance (Ohio Wesleyan University, ’84) and ran a successful commercial photography business for 12 years.  During that time I also served as the Secretary and later Vice Chair of the Rochelle Park Environmental Commission, where we worked to develop balanced ordinances for the protection of open space and wetlands, while meeting the needs of the community.

I also served on the Session (governing body) of the First Presbyterian Church of Hackensack for several years, serving as the head of the Finance Committee from 2001 to 2004.  These experiences have helped me understand how different organizations operate and have allowed me to develop skills that would help while serving on the Executive Committee of the WEA.

I believe that serving as the Treasurer is a way for me to use my experience and education to benefit the excellent people represented by our association.

Thank you,

Cal Donnell
