And we need to fight for our fair share from the state.

We need to provide our students, teachers and staff with better resources. But we need to emphasize the great work that we do for our children. I know what a large part our teachers and school staff play in raising our children. I have lived in Marlton my entire life and I know first-hand how amazing our schools are. I am committed to partnering with our local elected officials to provide strong and urgent advocacy in Trenton to make sure our students get the funding they deserve and local taxpayers don’t have to bear more of a burden.

With millions of dollars being lost in just the next few years, we need our board of education members to fight for fair funding. Advocacy – Recent headlines have highlighted the severe budget cuts our school district is losing from the state. We should be investing in programs and technology that will deliver efficiencies for our schools and taxpayers alike. We need to reduce the time teachers and administrators spend on activities that take away from their time with students and let them focus on educating and helping our children grow.ģ. Students, teachers and administrators need resources that are in line with the world we live in. Resources – Our schools currently use a 20th century handbook to solve 21stcentury problems. As a member of the board of education, I would focus on improving how the school district informs parents, taxpayers and families looking to move to our district with a more thorough and understandable presentation of all the great work our school district is doing as well as what we are working to improve.Ģ.

Transparency – Our school district needs to communicate its performance and commitment to students and parents better. I have three main points that are the focus of my campaign:ġ. It’s that first-hand experience and appreciation for our school system that inspires me to run for the board of education – I want to ensure that our township’s children benefit from our schools just as much as I did. As a product of our town’s education system, I know the extraordinary impact that our schools can have on our children and their future.
