My primary concern is that our taxes are not going to the schools but rather to line the pockets of the professionals.  In addition, there is far too much cronyism and nepotism involved in the hiring process.

The issues are previously listed, mismanagement, corruption, cronyism and nepotism.

5. What do you think should be done to resolve those issues?

I will commit to replace all non performing professionals, audit all bills, and not hire anyone who is related to someone on the school board.

6. What motivated you to run this year?

  I was motivated to run when I  saw the school board squander a 150,000 to a an attorney for handling 6 cases and I found the whole self insurance program to be a  Ritacco scam.
