Letter to the editor: Confidence in school board candidates

In today's Arizona Daily Star, Foothills resident Katherine Jacobson writes how she has "seen firsthand the success of our superb school district." She goes on to say, "I gladly pay my school district taxes because our school board members are consistently experienced, with no agenda except to spend our taxpayer dollars wisely while providing an excellent, broad education to our students." And that is exactly why she supports Amy Bhola, Amy Krauss, and Gina Mehmert for CFSD Governing Board. Read the full letter below.

School board election for CFSD

For 39 years, I have lived in the Catalina Foothills School District and seen firsthand the success of our superb school district. Students graduate with diverse skills. Critically, our students have high academic achievement with CFSD consistently testing among the top districts in Arizona. The students are offered AP and JTED classes, music, art, theatre, marching band, and a wide range of sports.

I gladly pay my school district taxes because our school board members are consistently experienced, with no agenda except to spend our taxpayer dollars wisely while providing an excellent, broad education to our students.

This election we should vote for Amy Bhola, Amy Krauss, and Gina Mehmert. They have been involved in our school district for many years. I recently had the opportunity to speak with them. They answered all questions openly and in detail, continuing the confidence I have in our school board members.
