Be Informed – Northshore School Board Edition

Ballots for the August 6th primary election go in the mail this Friday. There is one Northshore School Board position being contested in the primary. A race like this has a direct impact on our children and our community.

Continuing the theme from my post during the 2012 legislative races, it’s important for voters to do their homework before voting. Local races like school board have even less transparency than legislative races. In the NSD race, there hasn’t been one single debate or community forum where the candidates could express their views on education policy.

It is up to us, the voters, to obtain the information we need to make informed decisions.

Please take the time to review the candidates’ views on education before you vote. Our children are counting on you.

Sincerely,

Guy
