Statement

As a candidate for re-election to the Kennewick School Board, I am committed to transforming our schools into centers of excellence free from woke indoctrination. Parents deserve to have confidence that their children are mastering high-level math, reading, writing, and fact-based science and are not being subjected to ideological agendas. Schools must prioritize teaching over promoting equity at the expense of achievement.

As the current vice-president of the board, I’ve driven fiscal responsibility. Kennewick maintains the lowest tax rate among the Tri-Cities’ three largest districts, while having the highest financial health indicator score. I've helped save taxpayers millions by buying down bonds, and our district also wisely used federal ESSER funds to update curriculum ensuring sustainable success.

I’ve championed student safety and fairness, fiercely defending Title IX to protect girls’ sports and locker rooms from biological males. I also led efforts to place armed guards in every school, prioritizing your children’s security.

There’s more work ahead. I’m pushing to eliminate processed foods, dyes, seed oils, and sugars from school meals, fostering healthier learning environments. Re-elect me to continue demanding excellence, safeguarding your children, and ensuring our schools focus on education, not indoctrination.
