| “ | What are your top priorities for the district?
We need to get the growth under control, work on the budget and provide exceptional educators for the children. Why are you qualified to serve in this office? I have been on the Board of Education for the last nine years, I have put the children and our schools first. I have been part of many committees as recently as one dealing with Prop E. I truly enjoy being part of the top district in Missouri and watching our children thrive in our schools.[4] |
