Hilary For School Board
District 3
Platform

I am FOR

Keeping kids in school safely. We can all agree that we only want what's best for our children. And, giving them an in-class experience is the priority. Maintaining that in-class experience while keeping students healthy is also a top priority. 

I am FOR

Doing what is necessary to keep teacher retention high in Sumner Co schools while the nation as a whole is facing a shortage of teachers and substitutes and recruiting high-quality educators. 

I am FOR

Funding schools with what they require to teach ALL students - even those with learning differences. As a mother of 2 boys who are challenged with dyslexia, I know the importance of not leaving students with special needs and special challenges behind. 

I am FOR

Preparing students for a rapidly changing world by providing opportunities for students to learn and succeed and gain the knowledge and skills to become responsible members of our community.

I am FOR

Giving teachers all the tools they need to be successful educators. Teachers spend out of an already strained salary to subsidize missing materials every year. I intend to work hard with the board to provide those much-needed modernized tools like computers and software to compete while providing everyday materials that our teachers should not be out of pocket for. 

I am FOR

Providing school administrators and support staff- clerks, bus drivers, custodians, cafeteria workers- what they need to do their jobs and feel appreciated.

I am FOR

Being a good steward of school funds. As a former teacher, and stay-at-home-mom, I understand the discipline & management of a budget. Money will not be wasted on nonessentials and will be allocated to providing our students and staff with the essentials they are currently lacking. 

I am FOR

Working collaboratively with members of the community- parents, teachers, and administrations through thoughtful discourse.
