| Why would
you like to be elected? |
| I'm seeking the position because I believe I can apply my business and personal skills to further the ditrict's tradition of excellence. Our District is blessed with a very good public school system, clearly we are doing many things right. But with our resources and a stronger community commitment, I believe we can do better. The performance of our schools is built from our vision of what our school district and students can and should achieve. I believe they can achieve the best and we shouldn't settle for anything less. |
| What
would you like to accomplish if elected? |
| If I'm elected to School Board, I will always approach the job with an open probing mind. I will encourage input from students, faculty, parents, and other district residents. I will challenge the Administration, faculty and students to layout a bold course exceeding all current bench marks. "It's time to dare to be great." |
| How do
you think Internet technology will impact government services? |
| The Internet is another means of bringing the government closer to the constituent. It's another avenue of communication, speeding up the sharing of information. |
| What
one bit of information do people not normally know about you? |
| That I'm a big history buff. I spend a bunch of my free time reading books on American History. |
