Goals+as+a+Board+Member

__ Goals __ · Make South Park School Board more accessible to the parents and taxpayers at meetings and online. · Move South Park classrooms into the 21st century. · Ensure that the needs of ALL students are being met. · Listen to the concerns of ALL parents. This isn’t a promise to always agree, but I will always listen and do my best for your child.
 * I've heard from many South Park parents that they feel unwelcome and intimidated at school board meetings. I believe as elected officials, board members need to make taxpayers feel welcome, encourage their input, and make conveying concerns an easy process. I feel board members should be accessible to residents through email.
 * South Park has two new, beautiful buildings, but falls way behind in technology and innovative ways of teaching and learning. I would love to work with building administrators to help make South Park more competitive with neighboring districts.
 * As a parent and educator, neighbors and friends have expressed to me concerns about meeting the needs of students with IEPs. I look forward to the opportunity to team with other board members and address this need.
 * I'm not going to promise to always work for the exact solution a parent believes is the best, but I do promise to always listen to the concerns of parents, residents and taxpayers and use my experience and education to work for what is best for your student, and the other students in the district.
