| “ | What are your top priorities for the district?
To graduate all students ready to be accepted into a college or other further education institution of their choice, ready to be productive citizens and ready to be leaders in their community and their country. To restore the positive image that our district recently enjoyed and the Fox community has earned and deserves. Why are you qualified to serve in this office? I worked as an administrative assistant for 16 years in the Fox School District, having daily interaction with students, parents, certified/classified staff and administrators. I am aware of the impact board decisions have on the daily operations in a building and the morale of the students and staff. I am retired and have time to devote to serving my school district.[3] |
