1. What are the top 2-3 issues facing the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools, and what is your position on these issues? (50 words or less)

Improving student achievement for all children is the top priority; I support proven high impact approaches to education. Planning for growth and budgetary constraints will remain important issues; I support improving communications with the town on growth issues and working with the commissioners to improve the budget process.

I have broad experience with our school system through roles as parent, volunteer, and board member that allows me to make informed and reasoned decisions that are best for all students. I support evidence-based educational strategies that are proven to increase achievement and work collaboratively with others to improve education.
