Why should voters elect you?
"Having just graduated from the Howard County school system in 2006, I am young, and I bring a fresh new perspective."
What do you think is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
"The most urgent problem facing the school system is the lack of enthusiasm in students for going to school. The school system should be about education, not about schooling. We need to get students to be able to look forward to going to school every day. We also need to get parents, teachers and the community to be enthusiastic about the education the students are receiving. We need to be able to provide better education, not schooling, while making it more enjoyable for the students."
