Full Biography for Dianne McDermott
Candidate for |

|
I am a lifelong supporter and advocate for public education. I am a product of the Hayward Unified School District where I graduated from Tennyson High School. The education that I received was a strong foundation for my success in business. I am also a grandparent who is raising a grandchild who attends elementary school in Hayward and I have kept involved to ensure that my grandson receives the best education possible. Clearly, our children's success depends on our ability to prepare them for new challenges of globalization and rapidly changing technologies but we must work "together" with a strong commitment to our children that they are the community's first and highest priority. With California in a budget shortfall, we need to have an independent and innovative leader who can bring a fresh and unbiased perspective to the Board of Trustees. Although I have served in many leadership capacities, I have never entered the political arena. I have no hidden agenda, or preconceived opinions about the current Board of Trustees and if elected I would represent all the children of our diverse community. I currently serve as Chair of the Hayward Citizen's Advisory Committee of which I have been a member for seven years. Past President of Chamber of Commerce and Rotary. |
