Why I am Running

I am running because I am interested in how well our community does overall. I believe there is no greater honor than to be entrusted with the future of our community’s education. I have seen the path our school is on from the districts ability to educate our youth, prepare them for college, trades and the workforce and to just overall educate them to a proficient level that life demands. I know we can do far better. We have been falling in these areas as a district.

Top 3 Priorities

1) To increase communication in the district. Listening and acting on all the stakeholders interests.
2) Ensure we are in the best position to address the teacher and staff shortage we see being reported across our nation.
3) To ensure our teachers are not being inundated with excessive requirements that pull away from the most important aspect of this responsibility…the best education we can provide.
