Responses to Fairfield Taxpayers Forum

Liu-McCormack explained her top three priorities as a Board of Education candidate during the 2013 Candidate Forum hosted by Fairfield Taxpayers:[2]

  • Identify operational efficiencies to better direct taxpayer dollars towards student instruction.
  • Promote better collaboration and communication between constituents through respectful discourse, inclusion in processes (parents, administration, students and teachers) and transparency of information and analytics
  • Set approval processes that require comprehensive, fact-based research and best practices analytics to substantiate any recommendations prior to approval. Once identified, best practices need to be consistently applied within and across schools. This discipline will help promote educational excellence in curricula, text and program selection with the objective of preparing students for success in college and the work world.
