Candidate Questionnaire

What motivated you to run for the West Fargo School Board? (100 words max)

I've made a lifelong investment in the school district including my own education and my children. I've witnessed the community and school district transform from humble beginnings since my parents moved there in 1979 to the present day. Education is a fundamental right for all children to ensure they are afforded the opportunity to reach their full potential with the enduring goal of being productive members of microeconomic and macroeconomic systems as adults. Children are the future, and they deserve every opportunity to achieve greatness no matter the circumstances.

What personal, professional, or community experiences have best prepared you to serve on the West Fargo School Board? (100 words max)

My educational background and professional experience in family science, human development, financial planning, and business including fiduciary consulting for almost 25 years has provided me both a solid foundation and ongoing professional guidance to serve students and the community on the school board. I'm also involved in the community with various non-profits in several capacities as well including Junior Achievement.

If elected as a member of the West Fargo School Board, what would be your top three priorities for the school district, and why? (100 words max)

My top three priorities for West Fargo Public Schools include a healthy organizational culture, a guaranteed and viable curriculum, and balancing growth and development. We must support systemic interconnectedness to set, deliver, and achieve academic standards while being mindful of current and future needs.

Looking ahead five years, what do you see as the most important opportunities and challenges facing the school district? (100 words max)

The West Fargo Public School District believes in educating all learners for tomorrow's world. The world is changing and evolving faster than ever before. It is paramount we remain vigilant regarding educational standards to ensure we are continuing to prepare children today, for tomorrow. West Fargo Public Schools is the fastest growing school district for many years now. It is prudent the district remains committed to balancing growth while maintaining existing facilities and executing fiscal responsibility with taxpayer dollars. This is both an opportunity and a challenge as standards are set for today and tomorrow.

How would you approach balancing investment in academic programs and facilities with the district’s long-term financial sustainability? (100 words max)

It is crucial the West Fargo Public School district evaluates programming to ensure sound academic opportunities are available for all students, while also implementing regular process reviews for program sustainability. This may require periodic facility adjustments to ensure buildings are fully optimized which supports a commitment to fiscal responsibility.
