Two years ago, our thriving neighborhood school—the fourth largest in our district and home to a vital autism program—was closed and leased to a private school, displacing nearly 500 of our most vulnerable students. Ninety-five percent of these children relied on free or reduced lunch, a quarter had disabilities, and many were English language learners. We were told to just accept it, but I couldn't. When I dug into the numbers, I found a complete lack of transparency and deep disparities, with some of our schools struggling with low literacy while others thrived. Getting a straight answer from the district felt impossible. I am running because I believe public education is the foundation of our democracy. Every single student deserves an institution that puts their best interests first, free from political influence. Our children deserve better, and I am ready to serve.
Every child deserves a real opportunity to thrive, regardless of which school they attend. I will work to ensure every student has the access and support they need to succeed academically, because when our students succeed, our whole community grows stronger.
A thriving community starts with strong participation. I will build family confidence and lead genuine outreach efforts that meet people where they are, rebuilding the essential connection between our schools and the families they serve.
You deserve to know how decisions are made and why. I will open the doors, listen to your concerns, and ensure our board is always answerable to the people it serves through clear, honest communication.
The teachers and staff who work directly with our children every day are the heart of our schools. I will fight to ensure our budget reflects that priority, investing directly in the people on the front lines of our classrooms.
When taxpayers invest in our schools, we owe it to you to manage those funds with care. I will make sure every bond dollar is spent wisely and goes where it is needed most, so every school has what it needs to thrive.
Have questions or suggestions? I would love to hear from you!
