Congratulations to Dr. Foregger and Ms. Stanley on their election victory.

I also want to thank Mrs. Debang, Dr. Moore, and Mr. Devanney for choosing to bring their voices to the table in the spirit of public service.

This campaign has deepened my appreciation for our community. Running my first race with a limited budget, without any political party support, meant I relied on face-to-face conversations with my neighbors and the support of non-profit media outlets. These interactions helped me better understand our community’s values and concerns. I am proud to have earned 1,300 votes—each one hard-won and meaningful, even if I finished at the bottom of the group.

Meeting so many of you on the campaign trail has been a true honor. We live in a wonderful community, one that deserves a strong school district.

I wish Dr. Foregger and Ms. Stanley the very best as they work toward that goal.
