Q1. Please tell us a bit about yourself and why you are running.

A: Being a Trustee allows me to fulfill three of my lifelong passions:

  • Education
  • Kids, and
  • The community

I have dedicated my life to the success and well-being of these passions and am committed to continuing to do so.

I have experience as a Teacher, Principal, District Administrator and School Trustee. 

I am running for a Trustee seat because there is a lot of work to be done to support our education system and I can contribute to finding the best solutions. We need more funding for our classrooms and we need to continue our work on graduation rates, aboriginal education and early learning.

 

Q2. What is your vision for the school district, and how would getting elected help achieve it?

A: My vision is SUCCESS FOR ALL STUDENTS in ALL SCHOOLS. To achieve this vision, I will work hard on:

  • Increased student success rates
  • Effective working relationships with the school and broader community
  • Fiscal responsibility, including balancing the budget
  • Effective communication and collaboration
