Sometimes the community may not support or understand the decisions made. Due to privacy laws (Labor and FERPA), we can not explain those decisions that lead to unease. As a school board member, I will gladly speak to anyone, to provide the information that can be shared. By providing accurate information (data, research) and the space to discuss their concerns we all learn.
I will push for more community involvement and inclusion to the extent possible in the decision-making process. This will build trust, which will lead to community buy-in.
