Dear Friends-
Over the past 3.5 years, I have had the honor of serving as a volunteer on the Central 301 Board of Education. Throughout my tenure, I have remained steadfast in my beliefs, unwavering in my commitment to serve our district with integrity and prioritizing educational excellence for ALL students and ALL Teachers within our district. My focus has always been, and will always be, on the students, teachers, and families of this district. My decisions have always been guided by facts and what I know to be true. It’s been a privilege to witness the incredible dedication of our educators and administration while we flex & adjust with the exponential growth of our district. Together we have achieved so much, and I am deeply proud to be a part of the progress we have made as a community and district over the last few years.
In September, I began the journey of re-election to serve a second term on the Board to continue our mission. I wanted to extend my heart felt gratitude to all individuals who supported my petition & encouraged me to run for a second term. Your trust and encouragement mean more to me than words can express. I am humbled by your support and belief in our shared mission and vision for our district.
However, recent efforts to divide our district through misinformation, personal agendas, political maneuvering, groupthink agendas and personal attacks have been disheartening. These actions undermine the values of collaboration, respect, trust, and unity that are the foundation of our community, administration, teachers, and students of our district.
Our district is not without its challenges. I firmly believe that meaningful change comes from working together with the Community, Administration & Board of Education with facts, mutual respect, trust, and LONG-TERM solutions with the focus on our students, teachers, community growth and educational excellence. The next several years will be crucial for the future of our district as many decisions will need to be made.
Therefore, please be sure to take the time to vote on or before April 1st!
Thank you for your support.
