We need reform in CUSD!

For years, I've watched the CUSD Trustees waste millions of taxpayer dollars while they left many of our children and teachers in over-crowded, unsafe and unsanitary classrooms. The scandals and problems with the existing CUSD leaders simply became too great for me to ignore. That is why I'm running -- I know I can make a positive difference and improve our schools.

Today, because the existing CUSD Trustees have failed to make our students and teachers the #1 priority, many in our school district now feel like second class citizens. I promise to restore true fiscal discipline, increase safety in our schools, and restore a true sense of pride in our schools (which sadly is lacking today)!

  • "Reforming CUSD -- Easy as ABC"
  • Addonizio, Bryson & Christensen
  • (The ABC Reform Slate)

Larry is a member of the "ABC Reform Slate" -- Ellen Addonizio, Anna Bryson & Larry Christensen.

My Reform Plan:

  • Restore honesty, integrity and accountability to our school district

  • Dramatically reduce the number of old portable classrooms

  • Reduce class sizes and school overcrowding

  • Recruit and support world-class teachers

  • Provide teachers and students first-rate classroom supplies

  • Conduct a complete audit of CUSD finances

  • Protect your tax dollars from further government waste
