My Priorities

Clear priorities for stronger schools.

The school board faces many competing demands. These are the three areas I will keep at the centre of my work as trustee.

01

Better Learning

High-quality education, strong literacy and numeracy, and the supports students need to succeed. Resources should reach classrooms where they can make the greatest difference.

02

Safe & Supported Schools

Respectful, inclusive and well-supported school communities where students and staff can thrive, with timely attention to safety, mental health and special education needs.

03

Accountability & Local Representation

Clear communication, responsible decision-making and a trustee who is visible, accessible and engaged with families and school communities across Ward 10.

How I'll Lead

“Every major decision should come back to students, strong schools and responsible use of public resources.”

A trustee should ask hard questions, communicate clearly and make sure local concerns are heard at the board.

✓ Is this helping students learn?
✓ Is this making our schools stronger and safer?
✓ Are public resources being used responsibly?
