I have a lot of accounting experience as well as being very organized. I’m open minded & I try really hard to understand & have respect for all different opinions.
I feel very comfortable in my understanding. I have attended many school board meetings as well as served on the budget committee.
We need more community involvement & community voices to be heard & valued. We need to focus our budget on supporting our kids & teachers/administrators & making sure our district is accountable to tax payers.
