Why are you running for office? *
Our county was severely affected by the Department of Justice investigation and our county needs to heal from this. I am not a career politician but I know the process to being a successful Board of Education member. It is in reviewing policy and getting funding for the budget. Board of Education members must work and vote together and ultimately are public servants to the community and educators.

My grandfather

What is your position on parental involvement in schools?
