Smart Voter Political Philosophy for Shamann Walton

Candidate for
Member, County Board of Education; County of San Francisco

This information is provided by the candidate

I am proud to be a candidate for the San Francisco Board of Education. I have dedicated my career to working on behalf of children, youth, families, and communities. I have implemented programming in SFUSD schools that range from school readiness and kindergarten transition programs to academic enhancement and job training. As the Executive Director of Young Community Developers, I hold a unique perspective on how education relates to the workforce. I am committed to developing career opportunities and pathways for students. Having taught in the classroom for two years, I have a deep appreciation for the dedication teachers possess. As a community builder I hold collaboration, innovation and asset building as guiding principles for success. I have the ability and experience required to coordinate unified partnerships between students, teachers, parents, administrators, city officials and all SFUSD stakeholders. My vision is to instill a district-wide culture that values and emphasizes a comprehensive approach to education from pre-school to high school and beyond; one that teaches students how their learning today relates to their future success.
