Endorsement for School Board Elections 2011, Position 3
I am endorsing Michelle Buetow in this race. The other candidates are Harium Martin-Morris and John Dunn. I give my highest endorsement, out of all the races, to Michelle. I give it to her because: Michelle knows the district. Her learning curve is going to be short for a new Board member. Michelle's background in communications and marketing would be a big "add" for our Board. Her guidance in this area could help not only create better public engagement but also reframe the district's image. Michelle listens and she has a pretty good memory (for the mom of 2 small children). I've been surprised at her recall and that's another bonus for a job loaded with detail. She's enthused. I think sometimes candidates can get busy looking serious and/or passionate and Michelle is just plain enthused about getting in there and helping guide our district to be better Lastly, I respect Michelle for having given this idea of running serious thought....
