Since it was founded in 1992, the Education Foundation has contributed over $3 million to our School District. Over the years it has funded 5th grade instrumental music program, K-8 classroom music, GATE program support, Elementary School Counseling Center, and middle school after-school sports. The President, Colleen Sullivan and Board members, diligently work together on their fundraisers that raise much-needed funds for all the schools in our district.
With a reduction in donations, Education Foundation currently only supports 5th grade music and middle school after-school athletics. If elected, I hope to work with them creatively in achieving some of their fundraising goals.

Fiscal Responsibility:
We always talk about fiscal responsibility. Managing expenses and proper budgeting of all expenses is an important part of managing a home, business, or non-profit. The same holds true of our School District budget.
However, if the pizza is small, no matter how many ways you slice it, the slices will be small. We can't overlook the importance of fundraising in our budget.
From a young age, I had to work on a tight budget, helping my dad with billing, accounting, and customer service for our family businesses. For the past 14 years, I have successfully managed my real estate business for my Buyers, Sellers and Investor clients. I have the skills necessary to review and manage our SMFC school district budget.
