The district must lead by example by scrutinizing central administration and operational spending.

I will advocate for staffing decisions that reflect the importance of both physical safety and learning conditions.

When we invest in our staff—through collaboration, respect, and adequate resources—students benefit. I will support policies that help retain excellent educators and build stronger school climates.

Clean schools are safe schools. When custodial positions are cut, it doesn't just mean more work – it means real safety concerns for students and staff.

Financial Responsibility That Protects the Classroom Our dollars should reflect our values, and classrooms, para-educators, and counselors should be shielded – not sacrificed.

A High-Quality Education for Every Student All students deserve access to engaging, rigorous learning that helps them build competence and confidence – regardless of ability, language, or background.

As a board member, I will bring an educator’s perspective to budgeting and decision-making—ensuring that students and classrooms are the last place we make cuts, not the first.
