Campaign themes
2017
Anderson provided the following statement for the 2017 local voters' pamphlet for Clark County:[2]
“ | I am someone who is passionate about schools and our communities.
My children attended BG Schools and I have served on many citizen advisory committees through the years. This has given me insight into the issues before us. Our schools face difficult challenges. As Finance Manager of a locally-owned business, I successfully deal with similar challenges daily. When I started eight years ago I thought the work at BG Public Schools was just beginning. Then with the growth of the community, the need for new buildings, a new superintendent, the changes in technology and the aging of our curriculum, however the work is just beginning now. Your children, nieces, nephews and grandchildren add up to approximately 13,000 students for our district. They are our future. I want to thank all who have supported them and the district in the past and ask for your continued support as we move to the future.[7] |
