Position Papers
Building a Cohesive Board
The role of the Board in creating an academic environment where children can succeed is key to the future success of the District. I will work to ensure that we build a united, cohesive and coordinated team working towards our main goal of providing our students with a quality education.
Reaching out to Parents and the Community
I firmly believe that education of our students is everybody's responsibility. Educated students become responsible contributing adults that benefit our greater society. We need to engage parents and the community into the process of providing a quality education for our students.
