Timpanogos School District Seat 2

Once elected, the new board members will begin serving in December 2025 with three (3) to five (5) year terms. Over the following year, the three new districts will focus on crafting policies, hiring staff, including the superintendent, negotiating with other boards to decide which district gets what resources in the Alpine split and set property tax rates. The transition will culminate at the beginning of the 2027 school year when the newly formed districts, Lake Mountain, Aspen Peaks and Timpanogos districts, will officially start educating students. Lake Mountain School District will have 7 seats and encompass Lindon, Orem, Pleasant Grove and Vineyard.

The board will have a unique opportunity to set the goals and priorities for our new school district. What programs should we retain from the previous district? Suspend? What new initiatives can we explore?
What strategies will you implement to improve teacher retention and support, and how will you address the underlying causes of teacher dissatisfaction and turnover?
How do you plan to address the achievement gap and ensure equitable access to high-quality education for all students in the district? What would you do to better assist underserved students and their parents?

All programs and staffing will be maintained for 1 year after the dissolution of ASD, so we should be able to maintain status quo for that year. After that, I trust that since we will have an amazing superintendent, he or she will assure the continuity.
There are so many programs offered by the district - I want to focus on those programs that have shown success in improving the education of our students and revisit those that have not been as successful. I want to improve access to extension programs by offering some type of extension program at each elementary campus.
We need to treat our teachers as the professionals that they are and pay them an adequate wage. Good benefits also help with teacher retention. I hope to hire a superintendent that will be a talent magnet to attract and retain the best educators.
I believe all children are entitled to a robust education, including our special education kids. I am concerned about the changes at the federal level as I understand we get some federal funding for SPED from them, but I’m hopeful the state will make up any funding shortfalls. ALL and DLI are both great programs that extend and challenge students who may get bored in a regular classroom. I would like to investigate different setups for Gifted and Talented education that would make it more accessible to students who may be unable to travel to different campuses due to family circumstances. Maybe a pull out enrichment program at each school.
I would love for us to have a full time school counselor at every elementary and a full time social worker at each high school. I would advocate for funding for these at the state.
