| Board of Education Elections Tuesday, May 19, 2009 |
I am pursuing a seat on the Canandaigua Board of Education to assure the best education for
our most important investments: the children of our community. I have been truly encouraged
by my three greatest investments. Their names are Jeffery, Bethan, and Thomas. I realize I
have a tremendous responsibility to the successful growth of our children.
The Canandaigua School Board term is five years. In five years Jeffery who is in fourth grade
will have gone through the middle school and be finishing his freshman year at the Academy.
Bethan who is currently in first grade will be in the middle school, and Thomas who is two will
be in first grade. Our most valuable investments are growing strong and I feel a personal
responsibility to help support their progress.
I believe my background, education, and experience will be an asset to the Canandaigua
community as a member of the Board of Education. I am an active listener and an assertive
advocate. I hold a Master of Science in Counseling from SUNY Oswego. I attended
graduate school by working in Student Services and then worked as a Residence Hall
Director serving 450 college students. I saved my earnings and enjoyed a year of travel
through Australia and New Zealand. Upon my return to New York State I became the
Guidance Counselor at Sauquoit Valley Middle School in Central NY. In 1999 my husband,
Ron, and I chose to buy a home in Canandaigua because of the schools and the community. I
have had the pleasure of being a stay-at-home mom for the past ten years. We are pleased to
call Canandaigua home as we raise our family.
I am committed to common sense and fiscally sound decisions to assure the best education
for our children. I am a practical person who tries to understand the purpose behind choices
that are made, often weighing wants versus needs. I believe that the Canandaigua School
District is predominantly successful. As a school board member I plan to identify and correct
or improve upon the district's weaknesses while I support its strengths..
