Dear Neighbor,
When I started my own education journey I was fortunate to have parents who wanted the best for me. They homeschooled my siblings and I because they wanted us to have the best education we possibly could to help us prepare for our futures.
I am running for Keller ISD Board of Trustees, Place 4 because I believe every child in our schools deserve access to a world class education that will allow them to reach their full potential. I understand that the foundation of the American Dream has and will continue to be a quality education. If our schools fall, the American Dream will soon follow.
I believe in the potential of ALL students. Right now our school district is facing a crisis. Our school board has lost its focus on ensuring a quality education for all students that will prepare them to achieve the American Dream in a rapidly growing competitive work environment. From college to career technical education pathways, our students must have lifelong learning skill sets to compete in a complex global work environment.
I believe that my personal education journey as a former Keller ISD student and also being homeschooled provides me with a unique understanding of the challenges we face and the opportunities we have to ensure all our students graduate from our schools prepared for success.
Having my undergraduate degree in education, my law degree, and currently being a teacher at a local private school provides me with a unique understanding of the issues our students and families face in our schools. I believe my experiences and expertise are crucially needed right now on our school board.
As your next Place 4 Trustee, I promise to bring the school board’s focus back to the educational needs of all our students– not dividing politics. I would be honored to have your vote in this election!
