Achievement means giving every student the tools to thrive — not just in the classroom, but in life.
Community is the heartbeat of our schools.
Equity is non-negotiable. Every child in Jamesburg — no matter their background, language, or learning needs — deserves fair access to opportunity.

Campaign Priorities
01
Achievement
We want to make sure every student has the tools and support they need to succeed academically. This includes strengthening literacy and STEM programs, supporting teachers with training, and investing in extracurriculars that allow students to grow beyond the classroom. It also means holding high expectations for our students and knowing that with the proper support they can achieve great things.
02
Community
Strong schools depend on strong relationships. We will work to improve communication between the Board, parents, and teachers, by working with Administration to use standardized technology to make information clearer and more consistent. Building trust by listening to families is a priority. That means listening with intention and ensuring parents have a seat at the table when important decisions are made.
03
Equity
Every child in Jamesburg deserves the same opportunities to learn and thrive, regardless of their background, language, or learning needs. We will advocate for fair access to resources, like language access, safe and supportive schools, and programs that reflect the diversity and unique needs of all students.
We believe that focusing on these three values will help us move Jamesburg schools forward responsibly and effectively.
