An effective education is created by educators and administrators absolutely committed to protecting and guiding students toward empowering themselves through academic achievement and utilizing their intellectual gifts to succeed in life. I am passionate about engaging, motivating, and guiding learners of all backgrounds toward fulfilling their full potential in life. My alternative pathway in education, experience as a mother to two bright and intellectually curious children, and insight from many years of working with students of all ages and from all walks of life in various capacities such as a mentor to young children in a eucharistic youth group, a tutor to students with learning disabilities, a high school Biology teacher, and a special education paraeducator give me a fresh, in-depth, and valuable perspective that would give voice to all students and their families and offer meaningful solutions for achieving academic success and creating a bright future for all students.
Since becoming your school board director last year, I’ve worked alongside board colleagues to respond to the emergent needs of the pandemic, find and secure our new superintendent, and adopt two equity-focused resolutions: the implementation of ethnic studies & an anti-racism policy.
As a parent, I believe everyone should feel safe to be themselves in our schools. As an educator and woman of color, I believe this work starts and ends with centering voices of those who’ve been historically excluded in District decision-making. If elected, I’ll advocate for improved District accountability, transparency, and community reciprocity; increase community engagement in District decision-making; embed racial equity & inclusion policies and practices District-wide; increase support for diverse students & staff; and responsibly care for District resources, so our education system can better serve the needs of all students. I’d be grateful for your vote.
