I aim to make a positive difference in the students, teachers, and staff of Springboro Schools.

I believe in the power of proactive change and community-driven progress. Having been an active member of Springboro, I've come to understand the needs and struggles in our schools for our educators and students.

Education is the cornerstone of a thriving society, shaping the future of individuals and the community as a whole. My commitment to enhancing educational opportunities and experiences for all students drives me to seek a position where I can actively advocate for policies that ensure a well-rounded and inclusive education system.

My involvement in various school-related organizations, such as Families of SHS, JR High PTP, and the After Prom committee, has provided me with invaluable insights into the challenges and potential improvements in our education system. I am driven by the desire to use this knowledge to make meaningful contributions and steer our schools towards greater excellence.

Why should voters elect you as the best choice? Proven Dedication: My involvement in community and school-related organizations showcases my commitment to making a tangible difference. From co-founding Families of SHS to active roles in the After Prom committee and Jr High PTP, I have consistently demonstrated my dedication to our schools students, teachers, and staff.

Advocacy for Education, Inclusivity, and Equity: Every student's perspective is vital, and I am committed to fostering an environment where they can freely express themselves, contribute ideas, and shape their educational experience. A critical aspect of this advocacy is ensuring that our students, particularly those under 504 and IEP programs, have a strong voice. We need to prioritize these programs and make it easier for parents and educators to advocate for students with unique needs.

Transparency and Accessibility in Leadership: I believe in an open dialogue with the community. If elected, I will listen to concerns, and work collaboratively to address them. Transparency and accessibility will be the bedrock of my leadership, ensuring that every voice is heard and valued.

If elected, what will be your top three priority topics?

Inclusivity: Fostering a welcoming environment where every student feels valued and supported, regardless of background or circumstances.

Technology: Promoting the use of technology to enhance learning experiences and provide equal access to educational resources for all students.

Growth: Strategically planning for the future to accommodate a growing student population while ensuring the quality of education remains a top priority.

What specific plans do you have to address those priorities? In my commitment to providing an inclusive educational environment, I stand for policies that embrace and support every student within our schools. Working closely with educators, parents, and advocacy groups, my aim is to ensure that every student, irrespective of their circumstances, feels acknowledged and encouraged. It's vital that our educational practices foster unity and equality, catering to the unique needs of each student, including those benefiting from 504 and IEP programs.

To drive education through technology, securing funding and resources for integrated tech in our curriculum is crucial. Collaborating with local tech communities and businesses will open doors to mentorship programs and expose students to emerging technologies, preparing them for a tech-driven future.

Regarding sustainable growth and development, I'll engage with local government and stakeholders to match school capacity with our growing student population. Responsible fiscal management will be a priority, ensuring efficient allocation of financial resources to support school growth while maintaining education quality. Additionally, fostering partnerships with local businesses and educational institutions will attract top-tier educators, fostering an environment that encourages continuous growth and excellence in education. Together, we can create an educational landscape that's inclusive, technologically advanced, and poised for sustainable growth.
