Technology enthusiast - Proud Husband & Father - Empowering people
As a Grand Forks community member, parent of 4 children, a past GFPS employee and member of the recent GFPS Facilities Task Force, I have deep and unique knowledge of the school district and challenges it faces. Along with that, I have a strong drive and dedication to see our school district, teachers, and students succeed. Given the opportunity to serve I will focus on common sense, data driven decision making that serves our students and teachers well while keeping the community and taxpayers in view. Community involvement and understanding will be key for the future success of our Grand Forks Public Schools. Continual communication and opportunities for community engagement are important and I would support efforts to find the best methods to achieve this.
I believe that school board members should possess integrity and the ability to assimilate information from various sources and use that to make educated decisions. Effective School boards drive decisions and policy to best reach the goals of the district. Personal agendas will not provide a school board member who best serves the success of the district. School Boards should listen, and work to provide and support the best opportunities for success of students, teachers and staff with the resources available.
First and foremost achieving student success is important to me. Beyond that, if you would like a school board member who is passionate about the success of the school district with a deep and unique knowledge of the district and challenges it faces, please vote for me. If you would like someone who will take into account all information and stakeholders needs to support decisions and efforts that best provide a path to success for our school district, please vote for me.
