ason District middle schools include grade 6 – a review that had not occurred in over 30 years;
*Secure administrative needs-based staffing;
*Reduce overcrowding at Glen Forest Elementary School;
*Provide recess for middle school students to allow for a much-needed mental health break during their school day;
*Establish collective bargaining for FCPS employees;
*Fight for changes in the admissions process at Thomas Jefferson High School for Science & Technology, to open up opportunities for all exceptional students regardless of zip code or income; And much more. However, there is so much work left to do, especially since the pandemic forced a pivot to other matters. But with your help, I hope to continue to:

*Advocate for needs-based allocation of resources in all areas: staffing, facilities and much more!
