Candidate for
Governing Board Member; Antelope Valley Joint Union High School District

Thank you for the opportunity to serve our students, parents, teachers, employees and taxpayers. For 17 years, I worked to improve education as a Teacher at both Lancaster and Palmdale High Schools and as a Director of the Cedar Street Theater.

As your High School Board Trustee, I am dedicated to supporting the highest standards of academic excellence and financial responsibility. Together, we have achieved many successes during my first term on the Board, including:

Academic Excellence: Developed innovative educational programs to improve student test scores. Increased focus on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) to give students improved access to high paying careers.

Award-Winning Schools: SOAR High School earns nationally recognition for academics. Several Valley High Schools receive "Golden Bell" Honors for educational achievement. Our students earned National Robotics Award in a nationwide competition. Endorsed by our High School District Employees.

Accountability: Implemented Local Control Accountability Plan to reduce bureaucracy and provide more flexibility to meet the needs of individual students.

Safety: Maintained a strong commitment to campus safety. Proudly endorsed by our Professional Peace Officers.

I would be honored to earn your vote and continue working for quality education.
