2. What plans do you have to address your top three priorities? (100 word limit)
|
Answer from Walter S. MacKay:
Continue to provide the resources Education need to attain that ratings
Convince Margie that our district needs her professionalism to continue provide a quality education for our students
This is part of the Superintendent's duties to see that employees are given the necessary training to be promoted when the opportunity arises. I believe Margie will accomplish this in our district which was not done under the former administration
|
3. What will you do as a Board of Education member to increase parental involvement in your school system? (100 word limit)
|
Answer from Walter S. MacKay:
Parental involvement: The board's policy-making body and chief advisors to the Superintend on community attitudes. I would support the Superintendent in any effort to increase parental involvement but if the parents(s) are not involved in their students they will not be involved in our school system. If a parent would ask me how to get involved, I would tell the parent to join and become active in the PTA and Boosters in their student's schools. Both organizations are vital to our school system
