- I'm running for re-election to School Board to continue serving our students and community, to champion public education, and to work to ensure that every one of our students has high-quality educational-opportunities to help them reach their full-potential - regardless of post-graduation plans, race, ethnicity, economic-status, or whether they are in General-Education or receive Special-Education services. A School Board member has 2 primary responsibilities: First, to work with the administration to set District policy – with the ultimate-goal of providing a high-quality educational-experience for all District students - and, second, to be the important bridge between parents/community-members and the District.
- A safe school means not only that the school has implemented a comprehensive system of physical safety-measures (like secure entrances, a visitor-management system, video-surveillance, and physical obstacles like fences, and comprehensive training), but also that the school has an inclusive and equitable school-environment where all students feel a sense of belonging, and where the needs of students from marginalized-groups are taken into consideration. This environment helps to foster a culture in which students feel safe telling an adult if they see or hear something about a potential threat to the school. Research shows that students feeling connected to their school-community is AS IMPORTANT to school-safety physical safety-measures.
- As the District’s policy-making body, the School Board should work with Administration, Teachers, and Staff to make policies that best-provide high-quality educational-opportunities for all District students, and that best-serve student-learning. The District Administrator, along with other Administrators, should provide information and guidance to the School Board and answer questions from School Board members. I feel that the School Board has a good relationship with the District Administrator and Administration, and that we work well together.
I believe that the most important measure of a society is how it treats its most-vulnerable members.
During my first term as a School Board member, in order to make sure that I had enough knowledge about a topic to make a fully-informed decision, I have consulted with the following groups of people and sources:
- District Administrators, Teachers, and Staff,
- My fellow School Board members,
- District School Board Policies,
- Parents of District students and other members of our community, as well as
- Resources from the:
- Lake Mills Education Association (LMEA)
- Citizen Advocates for Public Education (CAPE)
- Wisconsin Association of School Boards (WASB)
- Wisconsin Public Education Network (WPEN)
- Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI)
- Wisconsin State Statutes
- My own independent-research.
