ELECTION PREVIEW, from page 66<br />

PARKWAY SCHOOL DISTRICT<br />

Board of Education<br />

Jeanie Ames<br />

I have dedicated over 25 years to Parkway.<br />

As a student, parent, PTO president<br />

and resident. Having three children who are<br />

diverse and unique learners, I understand<br />

the challenges facing families of students<br />

with special needs. I understand that the<br />

board of education is a body of oversight<br />

on behalf of the taxpayers. We also have<br />

the responsibility of evaluating and implementing<br />

curriculum. Both of these should<br />

be done with transparency while welcoming<br />

parental input and targeting taxpayer<br />

money where it will have the most impact.<br />

As a former teacher, I understand the needs<br />

of students. That knowledge, and my lifelong<br />

involvement in Parkway, uniquely<br />

qualify me to serve Parkway on the board<br />

of education.<br />

Kevin Seltzer<br />

I am running for school board because<br />

Parkway matters to me and my family. My<br />

time with Parkway has given me an amazing<br />

foundation for my life. It afforded me<br />

the academic building blocks to become a<br />

successful attorney. It instilled the values<br />

that define me as a person and a citizen. It’s<br />

even where I met my wife and where we are<br />

raising our family. I want to be a force for<br />

good in this community. My priorities are<br />

creating the opportunity for achievement<br />

for all students and promoting character<br />

development and creating opportunities<br />

for students to pursue their interests and<br />

passions outside of a traditional classroom<br />

setting; promoting school safety through<br />

cooperation with all parties including students<br />

and advocating for fiscal responsibility<br />

and prudent use of resources.<br />

Jonathan Taylor<br />

I am a Parkway parent and resident concerned<br />

with the direction our district has<br />

taken under current leadership. I am running<br />

to ensure that the voices and concerns<br />

of all parents and taxpayers are listened<br />

to and represented on the board. My top<br />

three priorities will be to provide our students<br />

and teachers with the highest level<br />

of safety and security, allow them to focus<br />

on academic excellence and deliver the<br />

age-appropriate and relevant curriculum<br />

options that the parents of the district want<br />

for their children, and provide complete<br />

financial transparency and accountability<br />

to the taxpayers.<br />

of excellence; innovative, research-based<br />

curriculum with a focus on STEAM subjects<br />

[science, technology, engineering,<br />

arts, math]; creating a caring, supportive,<br />

safe and inclusive environment for all students<br />

and staff.<br />

Amy Bonnett<br />

I am seeking election to Parkway’s<br />

board to continue serving the school district<br />

from which I earned a great education<br />

and have spent so much time volunteering<br />

as a parent. My top three priorities are<br />

academic excellence, fiscal responsibility<br />

and students prepared for life. I will<br />
