Please consider voting for Kris Castellano for the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools Board of Education this Nov. 8. I began volunteering with Kris when our children started kindergarten in this district in 2001. We started as classroom volunteers and room parents and progressed to elected positions. Kris served on the School Improvement Teams (SIT) at the elementary, middle and high school level, while I served on the PTA boards for these schools. I have witnessed the countless volunteer hours logged by Kris in our schools due to working closely with her on these different but complementary positions. She has also served on many different district committees and has co-chaired the Spanish Dual Language Parent Group with me for many years. She is comfortable and confident addressing the needs of all staff, parents and students at the schools. She is an active listener, organized and is always willing to research an issue in order to follow up appropriately. She works hard for all students and is an advocate for families that are not well represented when it comes to creating school policies. I urge you to elect Kris Castellano for school board so she may be a voice for all students and their families.
