Campaign themes
2013
Schulze provided the following statement for the 2013 Local Voters' Pamphlet in Kitsap County:[7]
|
"Continuing excellence in education; careful management of the District's budget and local tax dollars; and preparing our children for their futures will be critical to our students' and our community's success. As your School Director, I am working hard to ensure our schools continue to provide an exceptional education for all children. I believe leadership begins by putting students at the center of every decision while paying close attention to the financial impact on our schools and community. As a Board member, I believe in asking critical questions and carefully considering all recommendations to understand how they will affect our children's and our community's future. We are preparing our children now to succeed in a world filled with new opportunities and unexpected challenges. We need to make certain our students have a well-rounded education with critical thinking and problem solving skills. They must adapt quickly to meet the demand for newly created jobs and skills as our economy and technology continue to shift. My decisions will focus on our children's education and future, but be aligned with state and local budget constraints. I would be honored to continue serving you, our children, and our school staff." |
