Official Ballot Statement

Russ Hagey
Occupation: Business Executive

Education & Qualifications:

I have a long, continuous service record to the Burlingame School District. I
serve as one of the longest tenured members of our local BCE Foundation, as
President or treasurer. I served as treasurer for the ABC-YES campaign, a
multi-year member of the Budget Advisory Committee and an active soccer coach.
My family has called Burlingame home for 12 years and my two daughters will
span our elementary and middle schools. My professional career includes a MBA
from Stanford Business School and I help build strong profitable, growth
companies so I know how to prioritize, make tough decisions, build teams and
create success.

It's this same set of professional skills plus a compassion and dedication to
our children and schools that draw me to the school board. While new school
funds are available, priorities must still be set, finances watched, decisions
made fairly and consistently, teamwork and trust must be built and success must
be measured. I believe as parents and as a community, our expectations for
schools are rising. My commitment is to higher expectations, the change to get
there, and the spirit of team and trust in the school district we call home.
Thanks for your vote and high expectations.
