Candidate Testimonials

By Lisa Tam

Testimonials written by the former FUHSD Superintendent, Joe Hamilton, as well as parents and students in the district.

I support Lisa Tam for the High School Board because of her passion and commitment to our children and our community. While Lisa values high academic achievement, she also desires that our children develop the character and social skills to "navigate a complex world." I will vote for Lisa Tam, and I hope you will too. ~ Carol Andrews, Monta Vista parent

From the day I first met Lisa Tam, I was impressed with her positive, "can do" attitude and her compassion for people. We have worked together on many school projects, and my respect for her strong leadership, organizational skills, and follow-through continues to grow. She has a tremendous capacity to listen in order to gain a thorough understanding of all viewpoints, and she is always determined to do the best job possible. I believe that Lisa Tam is the best candidate for the Board. ~ Susie Fong, Girl Scout Leader, Miller and Blue Hills parent

I think Lisa Tam would be great for the School Board because she is easy to talk to and understands what students are going through. She is always looking for ways to help people, and her love of kids extends far beyond her own. ~ Kristen Yasukawa, Lynbrook student, Grade 11
