Position Papers
Fiscal Crisis
Now, more than ever, Newark requires board members with experience and expertise in reading, developing, and managing budgets -- I am that person
Test Scores
Test Scores have increased 45 points in the last five years; 31 at Newark Junior High School and 12 at Newark Memorial just last year. However, I believe they do not reflect to true extent of our children's learning.
Community Support
In the eight years I have served the Newark community, I have personally answered over 95% emails sent to the entire board and all that were sent directly to me. I believe that an elected official represents the community and we are obligated to address the issues brought to out
