As a parent, I have been passionate about helping our local schools be the best that they can be. I volunteered for years in the PTA (twice a school PTA president) and on school community councils. In 2014, I saw that there was not a single Granite School Board Member with children still in school, and I ran for the school board to provide a much-needed parent voice.
- THE KIDS- I will continue to support quality education for our students. They are my top priority.
- PARENTS & TAX PAYERS- I will continue to support parental and community involvement in our classrooms, as well as maximizing precious tax dollars.
- TEACHERS & SUPPORT STAFF- Granite School District has the best employees around, and I want to support all on our team to do the best job they can.
