My top priority is the children. The children in the district need to receive the best education possible so they have the opportunity to compete and perform well in their post-secondary academics. We also must ensure that the district’s accreditation is continued and ensure that the necessary teachers and staff are in place with the tools they require to be successful. Why are you qualified to serve in this office?
