Why are you running for the School board?

After moving to Kennett in 1990, I felt comfortable in the community and decided to stay. Eventually, I decided to become an early childhood educator and work with children. Over the years, I’ve been involved in various non-profits as a volunteer. My children grew up and graduated from KCSD, and I’m hoping to volunteer as a demonstration of my gratitude for all the benefits provided by the school.

What three things in the school district do you want to change or see come to fruition?

  1. School Safety and Mental Health
  2. Dual Language programs
  3. Teacher and staff retention
