I’ve decided to put my name forward to run for the Lethbridge Public School Board as a trustee. I believe the trustees hold a crucial position that provides significant impact on children, families and the entire community.
I want to ensure every student in the Lethbridge School Division receives a high-quality education that prepares them for the future, whether they choose post-secondary education, a trade, or entering the workforce. This means focusing on foundational skills like literacy and numeracy while also embracing modern learning that teaches critical thinking and problem-solving.
As a trustee, I will be a responsible steward of taxpayer dollars. I will scrutinize budgets to ensure that funding is directed where it matters most—the classroom. I believe in transparent financial reporting so our community knows exactly how their money is being invested in our children’s future.
Parents are a child’s first and most important teachers. I want to foster a culture of partnership between schools and families. I will work to improve communication, ensure parents’ voices are heard and respected, and make it easier for them to be actively involved in their child’s education.
As Lethbridge is on traditional Blackfoot territory, I am committed to honouring the Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action by supporting Indigenous education, culture, and language programs within our schools.
I look forward to continuing this dialogue as the campaign season kicks off.
