Ann is Currently Running for the Talbot County School Board, District 2
Recently, there have been reports suggesting that my candidacy for the
Talbot County Board of Education is endorsed by Mom’s for Liberty. I
want to clarify that this is not true. I have not received endorsements
from Mom’s for Liberty or any other group.
I have attended meetings hosted by the local M4L Chapter to better
understand their perspectives and issues. This is one of my guiding
principles—to attend meetings in the community to gather information
so I can make my own decisions–. At the last meeting, our
superintendent, assistant superintendents, and director of
communications for TCPS were present as guest speakers, highlighting
the ongoing dialogue between our school system and the community.
People may incorrectly label me according to their perspectives, based
on where I go, what groups I frequent, and in what activities I’m
involved, but my focus remains clear: I am committed to the children of
this county, our dedicated teachers, and the importance of parental
involvement. Collaboration among the three groups is essential to
elevate our schools; it’s a three-legged stool- if one leg falters, the
entire system is compromised.
If elected to the school board, I will prioritize listening to all voices to
make informed decisions. My platform is based on the ABC’s of
education: Advancing Academics, Boosting Accountability, and
Cultivating Character. These principles will guide my decision making
and efforts to improve our schools.
Together, lets strive for excellence and overcome mediocrity in our
educational system. It would be an honor and privilege to serve as your
school board member.
