Occupation: Incumbent/Parent During my tenure on the board we have been able to improve the quality of education and see the Academic Performance Index (API) rise from 772 in 2006 to 834 in 2011. We continue to offer full day kindergarten, summer school, after school enrichment programs and have some of the smallest class sizes in the county despite the economic uncertainty and budget challenges the district has faced. As a Board Member, I will remain committed to improving the quality of education for our children. My focus will be on maintaining the highest educational standards, balancing the curriculum, attracting and retaining high caliber teachers, continuing to promote parent involvement, all while sustaining the financial health of our district. Together we can continue to improve the quality of our schools. I appreciate your vote. |
