OCCUPATIONAL BACKGROUND: Insurance Sales / Marketing for 30 years; High School Teacher and Coach; Part Owner of Play by Play Sports (Courtside Jam)

EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND: Graduated from Woodburn High School in 1961; B.S. Degree in Education from Southern Utah State University

PRIOR GOVERNMENTAL EXPERIENCE: Appointed to Woodburn School Board (Currently Serving)

Educating all of our children properly who are our most precious resource for our future. After being appointed to the Woodburn School Board for half of a year and seeing the importance of good leadership.

Being part of that leadership, I want to continue helping us find solutions to better schools for ALL of our kids.

A vote for me will continue to see our schools in Woodburn developing successful students. Each student is important and merits opportunities for his or her future.

I have been married to my wife for 37 years and we have 3 children. All of our children are married, and we have 8 grandchildren, 3 of whom are currently attending Elementary School in Woodburn.

We must recognize when we have examples of success, in our students as well as our teachers and administrators. We must make sure that the dollars spent are being spent effectively and wisely, with good results.

Finally, let’s make sure that we give every child within the district the same equal opportunity as every other child has.

Your vote would be appreciated.
