What would you hope to be remembered for accomplishing after serving in this office?
During my first term, the Clay County School District moved up to 8th in the state and graduation rates rose more than 10% to a record high. I want to bring different and more diverse options to our students to improve both of these accountability measures even more while advocating for students and parents. I also want to continue my work of less focus statewide on high stakes testing.
