Our district faces important challenges. We must improve student achievement, attract and support high quality professional staff, and use our resources creatively. We also must continue upgrading our facilities. I will draw upon my 20 years in engineering to analytically and effectively tackle these challenges.

I have two sons attending school in this district, and I am active in every aspect of their education. Every week for the past five years, I have volunteered my time in their classrooms and have even coached the school soccer team. As a founding parent of Adelante Magnet School, I was elected to Adelante's first parent/staff site council in 1994-95. In addition to taking responsibility for sound fiscal management, this initial site council laid the foundation for the warm and responsive community of staff and parents that characterizes Adelante School today.

Working with my colleagues on the School Board, I want develop a better partnership with our communities to channel our energies into educational improvement for all our children.

Only by uniting the efforts of the diverse communities of our city, can we achieve true educational excellence for our students -- and I invite you to contribute your time and talent. Join me.
