Poor self-discipline and a lack of responsibility combine with inadequate writing, reading, math, studying, and technical skills to make it very hard for our young adults to succeed in our demanding society. My empirical experiences lead me to believe that the major issue facing the Governing Board of the Sahuarita School District is the boards loss of vision and focus on personal agendas. As a member of the governing board I will always focus on several major goals. When these goals are kept in the foreground, every issue can be resolved for the benefit of our children. Ensure that the school district receives adequate and equitable funding.
Equitable funding is of utmost importance for the success of our education system.
Provide the best vocational and academic curriculum available, taught by the best staff possible, for our children. Other Pertinent Information Several members of the governing board have served multiple terms, with good results. Still, the governing board has become too political and dependent on a narrowly defined majority. Members of the board to not speak as as a unified board after a decision has been made and have begun to publicly attack each other. These types of activity by members of the board and the superintendent do not place what is best for the districts' children first and foremost.
