Our schools are the heart of our community, and I am eager to run and help keep them strong.

Sarah on the
Issues
Mindful Policy &
Community Engagement
Concord, like many other districts, will be facing hard decisions in the near future. The complexities of building a new middle school, adjusting curriculum demands at the high school level, and the complex policy issues that start at the state house require skill and care to address properly. It is critical that community members are offered opportunities to share their thoughts and hopes for the future, which is something she believes the school board can improve upon. Sarah’s career has allowed her the opportunity to follow state-wide education policy for the past several years.
Public School Advocacy
Over the past few years, decisions being made at the State House level have been focused on the privatization of public education. These policy decisions could have negative effects on this public institution we all rely on. It is more important now than ever before that communities come together to support and uplift our public schools. No matter what side of the aisle folks may identify with, we can all agree that our hopes and dreams for our children are the same: that they will have the kind of education that helps them find and develop their special skills and thus put them on their path to success whatever that looks like for them.
