-
How long have you resided in Cordova?
- I have been in Cordova since July 2004.
-
Why do you consider yourself to be the best candidate for the job?
- I believe I am the best candidate for the job because I have two kids currently enrolled in the Cordova School District. I have served two terms on the board and am familiar with the district’s attributes and challenges. I am familiar with both state and municipal revenue challenges and how those challenges affect Cordova and the school district. I believe in Cordova’s kids and I want to help them to be successful in life after graduation.
-
What would be your top priority as a school board member?
- My top priority as a board member is student success. Success means different things to different people. I believe it one of the district’s jobs is to help our students achieve success individually.
-
What would you do to make Cordova safer?
- What would I do to make Cordova safer? Interesting question. I think one that thing that helps is to keep kids busy with school activities as well as extracurricular activities.
