Educational Opportunities
Ladue Horton Watkins High School consistently ranks as one of the best in the nation. Our renovated high school now provides a twenty-first century facility to support our outstanding academic program. We must continue to provide excellent educational opportunities to all of our students. This means we must be dedicated to equity, to enable every child in our diverse student body to achieve his/her maximum potential. This means that every student should see a path to the development of their own unique talents and interests, including Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Math (STEAM) as well as language arts, social studies, and languages. To enable this, we must provide an environment in which students feel safe and valued for who they are.
Why I am running for Ladue Board of Education
As a member of a very effective team, I wish to continue working to move the District forward. I feel It Important to continue our fiscal responsibility as we complete the full upgrade to our facilities. We must build upon the successes we have achieved, particularly as we must focus on providing a safe environment for our students and staff. My experience, particularly as an educator, equips me to help In meeting these needs.
The key issues facing the School Board in the next two or three years
We are In our second challenging year, with a pandemic threatening the well-being of our entire community. We must continue to make the best decisions we can, based on sound medical advice, to protect our students and staff. We must do this while supporting a top quality faculty, providing them with the resources necessary for Instructing our children. We must assist our diverse student population to both celebrate their Individuality while also developing a mutual understanding and appreciation of each other.
