Why do you want to be elected to the school board?

I have broad experience with our school system through my roles as parent of four children, volunteer and board member for the last four years. This experience along with my professional skills allows me to make informed and reasoned decisions that are in the best interest of our students. I have consistently supported evidence-based educational strategies that are proven to increase achievement, worked collaboratively with elected and other officials to improve communications over my term and advocated for more open and accessible board meetings that allow consideration of all stakeholders in the decision-making process.
