Why am I running for school board?

1. First, and foremost, I have a great desire to continue to provide leadership in the school district where my children receive their education. I greatly enjoyed my years in KISD working with the parents, teachers, and students. Because of these positive experiences I would like to continue to work in the district via a position on the school board.
2. I feel the skill sets I bring to the community allows the voters to place a veteran educator on the school board. I was a classroom teacher for 11 years, an assistant principal for 4 years, and I now work in curriculum and instruction for a neighboring district. With these tools I can advocate effectively and efficiently for the different stakeholders within our school district community.
3. I feel compelled to provide a fresh perspective to the board as well as a desire to engage the board in developing a strategic three or five year plan for our school district.

Goals

• To be a knowledgeable and trusted advocate for all stakeholders of the Kennedale ISD community
• To create a climate of trust, innovation, and accountability between the board and KISD community
• To ensure instruction and student learning are at the forefront of the decisions made on the school board
• To develop positive, meaningful, and responsible relationships with parents, teachers, students, and school administrators in Kennedale ISD
