The election has come and past and I am happy to say that I am happy with the results.  I am glad to know that the public recognizes and appreciates our board and wants us to continue working together.  We are a good board.  We don't always agree, but we can be civil.  We can agree to disagree without hard feelings.  We know that is about the students, families and employees of the school district.  We know that the families and employees of the school district want what is best for the students and feel the weight of that responsibility as we conduct the business of the board.  THANK YOU Etiwanda for the re-election and for the faith you have placed in me to do the right thing for your children.

We make a difference..... together.

We have a community which supports the education of children.  
We have parents and families who value education and are consistent and supportive of our schools, a district administration which provides the teachers with facilities and materials they need, a school site administration which provides direct supervision of teaching, and teachers who are hard working professionals and challenge every child in their classroom to do their best.  It is a successful partnership between the schools and families of the Etiwanda School District. 

I believe in....

I believe in:

 *a rigorous curriculum that includes the application of skills in real world settings, career exploration, fine arts and a rich array of elective offerings. 

* targeting the specific needs and learning styles of all students to better provide the support necessary to achieve success. 

*the use of technology to help our students excel, our administrators lead and our community stay connected. 

*teacher training and support to help them function effectively in our diverse and changing world. *being fiscally responsible so that maximum dollars reach the classroom. 

*providing a safe environment and sense of community for both our employees and students.

I believe that our leaders must model the core values of the district in word, thought and action. I seek to communicate the high expectations of the Etiwanda School District in a clear and supportive manner. I will work hard toward the common goal of student achievement and success.
