Candidate for
Board Member; San Marcos Unified School District

Sound fiscal policies: Making financial decisions that are in the best interests of students is my number one priority. In the last four years, we have been able to successfully navigate these terrible budget times while simultaneously helping the district improve the quality of education it provides to its students.

A demanding and relevant curriculum. Students must always be challenged, and our expectations of them must always be high.

Completion of San Marcos High School reconstruction. When I first ran for the Governing Board, one of my goals was to expedite the reconstruction of San Marcos High School. It's remarkable how far we've come. The construction is well underway, and the new campus is starting to take shape. My goal is to have the project completed on time and on budget.

Teacher development. Our teachers should receive continuing education on the latest developments in teaching, and in the subject matters they teach.

The PACE Promise. The continued development of the PACE Promise, our district program that guarantees college acceptance to qualified students.

A voice for parents. It is important that parents of students have a voice in district affairs. As a board member, I will continue to make myself available to all parents so their questions and concerns will be answered and addressed.
