MY PRIORITIES

Be guided by regular inputs from students, parents, and community members.
Work with the provincial government to restore the mandate of democratically-elected OCDSB School Board Trustees.
Ensure public schools are safe, inclusive communities for all students and staff, with a focus on 2SLGBTQI+ individuals, newcomers, and students with special needs.
Offer parents and students choices to meet their needs, whether in their closest school or in a specialized school. Embed supports in schools themselves, for greater access by students and less burden on parents.
Support evidence-based decision- making around technology use in the classroom. Prioritize analogue learning and foundational skills like making friends and information literacy.
Foster an education system that helps solve the greatest challenges of our time, notably the climate crisis and weakening civic engagement.
Advocate to the provincial government to significantly increase public education funding.
Approve balanced OCDSB budgets annually.
