WHY AM I RUNNING?

In 2017, I was appointed to serve a one-year term by the Hickman Mills C-1 School Board to fill a vacancy and was elected to serve a three-year term from
2018 – 2021.

Since leaving the Hickman Mills C-1 School Board in 2021, I have continued to follow the board’s proceedings – attending meetings in person and virtually. I have seen the disrespectful interactions and the lack of effective governance. It has left me with a lingering question: “Is It Good For Our Children?”

As someone who deeply cares about the future of our schools and the opportunities available to our students, I believe the answer is a resounding no! After meeting
with numerous parents and teachers over the past several months, I decided to
enter the Hickman Mills C-1 School Board race for the one-year term.

Our children deserve a school board that works collaboratively, respectfully, and
effectively to provide them with the education they need and deserve.

I humbly ask for your vote!
