The Next Generation.

By Freddie P. Valdez

I pledge my highest energy and deepest committment to protect the next generation of decision makers.

I will continue to nurture and strengthen our alliances with those elected officials who believe, as we do, that the education of our children cannot be a second priority. I will make those phone calls, write those letters, and make a special effort for the educational needs of District One.

It is, after all, the next generation of decision makers whose interests we protect. They are all our children. "They" are also my own children, and to my child and to your child, I pledge my highest energy and my deepest committment.

In closing, I believe that I have been elected and re-elected by the people to the School Board, because of my honesty, loyalty, leadership, and common-sense approach to educational issues. Thank you in advance for considering my candidacy.
