Full Biography for Christopher C. Severson
Candidate for |
||||
|
I love Orinda schools and greatly benefited from attending K-12 here. As the father of five children, including four in OUSD, I am deeply invested in this public school system and its continued success. I have earned a BS in Economics, an MD degree and am a practicing Emergency Medicine physician at hospitals in Pleasanton and Walnut Creek. Shortly after returning to Orinda, I agreed to chair the Orinda Family Science Night. I am a Boy Scout leader and my wife and I have been active Parents' Club volunteers, including directing cashiering/checkout for Glorietta school auctions. Open, respectful communication is paramount in our community's collaborative efforts to educate our children. I have the privilege of speaking with patients and their families every day about good news as well as bad. In these difficult economic times, such diplomacy has become requisite for a school board member. I have no narrow agenda to champion: my focus will be the continued improvement of all of our OUSD schools and all of our educational programs for all students. In a time of diminishing revenues, it is imperative to shepherd limited resources. By conservatively managing our tax dollars and community donations, I believe we can maximize our educational investment in our children. I will constantly seek for ways to be more efficient with these resources. We have excellent teachers and staff across Orinda schools. I will ensure that we continue to provide them with tools to help them succeed in inspiring our children. I respectfully ask for your vote on November 2nd.
