Candidate for
Board Member; Princeton City School District

Experienced Leadership: 8 years of service to the community on the Board of Education.

Dedication to schools and students: 19 year member of PTA, have served on multiple school and district committees. These have included Strategic Planning--Team Leader "How to make the District more Family Friendly", starting School/ Family/ Community Partnerships, and presentations on their successes to state wide groups.

Vision of Excellence: Actively involved over the past 8 years in strengthening our Board, helping to make it a stronger, cohesive leadership voice for our students, district, and communities. Active in establishing and following through on Board and District Priorities, through support and increased demand for accountability.

Academic achievement: Proud of our "Effective" rating on the Ohio report card... but not satisfied. I will continue to support and encourage our administration's and staff's efforts to reach all students and help them master the knowledge and skills they need to thrive in our communities and our world.

Finances: We must all pull together and work hard to ensure that Princeton continues to receive the funding it needs to offer excellent education to our students. This will require our working in cooperation with our legislators in Columbus so that the burden doesn't fall back on our property owners-- something that our Ohio Supreme Court has found to be unconstitutional throughout the various deRolph cases.

"I give much of my time and energy to our schools, because I believe that an excellent education is vital to future success for our students and our society. Please support Princeton and our efforts to offer the best to ALL students."
