Terrance Edmond The candidate did not respond to the questionnaire before press time.

Why are you running for the CFISD board of trustees, and what makes you the best candidate?

As a former CFISD educator, mom of two CFISD students and wife of a CFISD teacher, I am deeply committed to our schools. I have over 20 years of experience in public education. I know how to get results for students on a tight budget and a ticking clock.

I provide strong leadership with 23 years of experience in the district and as a business co-owner. My background, teamwork abilities and deep understanding of our operations allow me to support academic success, eˆective governance and thoughtful decision- making for a uni‰ed, high-performing school board.

The candidate did not respond to the questionnaire before press time.

Given mixed feelings about the TEA’s rating system, how do you think district success should be measured? What makes a successful district?

A successful school district has a stellar graduation rate and an excellent record of preparing students for the post-secondary path that is right for them, be it workforce, military or college. There should also be accountability for student achievement, safety and staˆ satisfaction.

Prioritize reading comprehension and build safe, disciplined classrooms where teachers, staˆ and students support eˆective learning. Develop systems to prepare every graduate for college, career-ready jobs through CTE, or military service, ensuring all graduates are ready for life’s next steps.

The candidate did not respond to the questionnaire before press time.
