My goals are to help guide the district to provide “relevant, meaningful, real-world opportunities” for all students, and to focus on teaching “problem-solving” and “critical thinking skills” to best prepare students for career, college, and life.
- I will prioritize collaboration between our district and local colleges including Fox Valley Tech in an effort to better prepare our students for future careers and life.
