It is time for something different.
For years it has been the same. The same groups calling the shots. The same agenda. The same outcomes.

“I do not represent the status quo. I’m not part of the insiders. I will make your voice stand out. ”
Merit and Test Scores
We used to have one of the top school districts in the country, but according to the Maryland Comprehensive Assessment Program (MCAP) 2022-23 results, only 57% of third graders in MCPS are reading at or above grade level.
Safety
This system of maintaining safety is clearly not working. Last school year, there were nearly 5,000 reported incidents and 57 arrests/referrals across the school system.
Financial Stewardship
Montgomery County Public Schools has so far spent $412,544 more on legal fees this fiscal period than last, thanks to some high-profile lawsuits that pit the county school district against parents and staff. The Board clearly needs someone who will raise an objection to this kind of runaway spending.
School Choice
Many counties in Maryland offer charter school options. Parents in Montgomery County want and need educational choices.
Climate of MCPS
One party rule and rubber stamps within the county has led to a total crisis of leadership, without anyone standing up and saying what’s plainly obvious: there is gross incompetence with those who have been elected to run this school district. Where is the courage?
Representation
Parents, teachers, children are all tired. Tired of being deprioritized, ignored, even shamed. We all deserve to be represented and served. And we all deserve to be listened to, not simply heard.
