Liberty Hill ISD board of trustees, Place 4

If elected, what are your goals for Liberty Hill ISD? My goals are ensuring LHISD’s vision, mission, beliefs, and goals are living in our classrooms, and that our sta‹ have what they need to just do it right and achieve success.

What are the biggest challenges facing LHISD, and how would you address them? The biggest challenges today are securing high-quality teachers and suitable funding for high-quality schools. We must collaborate to develop working environments, training, and bene€ts that attract and support all sta‹. We need to stay €nancially responsible while working with legislators to appropriately fund public schools. LHISD challenges are growing pains. We need to invest in student[s] and give them the best facilities to achieve excellence. Construction of new facilities should stay within budget but still have quality work. We need committees with parents, sta‹, students and community for suggestions/ input on needs.
