Statement
I’m honored to serve as your current School Board President. I’m seeking re-election because our district deserves steady, experienced leadership—and a proven record of results.

During my time on the board, I’ve stood firm in defense of our students and staff, even when it meant challenging overreach from the state. I’ve championed and passed multiple forward-thinking policies, resolutions, and curriculums that reflect our community’s values and protect local control.

One of my top priorities has been ensuring a safe learning environment for every student. That’s why I was the leading voice on the implementation of an armed School Safety Officer program—designed not only to respond, but to build trust within our schools. Just as importantly, in every decision, I’ve worked to ensure we’re spending taxpayer dollars wisely with accountability and long-term sustainability. We’ve strengthened our budget and kept our district on solid financial ground.

I believe leadership means listening, acting, and being transparent. I’ve done that—and I’m ready to keep doing it. With your support, we can continue to build a district that puts students first, stands up for what’s right, and manages resources responsibly. I respectfully ask for your vote.
