Questions & Answers

1. What are your qualifications for office?

I am an advocate for public education and feel every student can achieve to their highest abilities with the right tools, teachers,and support. I lived and worked in the district my whole life, so I feel I have vested interest in our schools success.

2. What can be done to improve your school district's results at current funding levels?

3 years ago, the Board had to make some hard decisions and we cut over $3.5 million from the budget. This has helped stabilize our finances and not have to return to the voters for additional funds. Hiring an experienced and well respected treasurer, Mr. Randy Seymour to oversee our funds. Voting in agreement to participate in an health care consortium to save funds.

3. What will you do to build consensus in the community in support of your school district?

I'm open to frank conversations about the district. Communications is a 2 way street, and I'll talk to anyone who has questions or concerns.

4. What would you do to advance the concept of "equity in education" in your district?

No excuses accepted for poor performances. All students are entitled to an educations that challenges them and has them ready for life's choices after high school.
