Position Papers
Why are you running for the School Board?
I feel a strong conviction to preserve the freedom of expression for all students regardless of their religion, sex, race, or national origin.
If elected what would you bring to the HBUHSD?
The perspective of 24 years working in a higher education institution where I see the challenges students are faced with daily. For our younger students in high schools, I can see "the future" of what they need to be ready for, what they need to feel confident in doing and assist in creating an environment that prepares them for these challenges.
What is the most important issue the HBUHSD?
There are many, but most would agree that chief among them is the need to improve the API scores at all high schools in the district to 800. Why? read the full text of this position paper...
