I bring my experience and dedication as a member of the community. I've been intensely involved in both my children's school career, and the Bethel School District in the past few years. I'm passionate about what our schools can do, and I look forward to working to make sure that the school district has a bright future!
We are obligated to follow state and federal education policies, but those leave a lot of room for us to set our own goals and strategies to achieve success for our kids.
We need to make sure that our budget continues to fund our core programs, while maintaining the projects that are key to what makes Bethel special, like free meals and Career Technical Education opportunities.
