MEET MICHELLE
I'm a devoted mother of two wonderful girls and a seasoned education professional with over 20 years of diverse experience. I know the importance of education because I attended a variety of schools from Catholic, private to public schools. All of them provided a different experience but my mom knew how to navigate the educational system to get me to the right schools. This strong foundation allowed me to attend Adelphi University for undergrad. I went to obtain three more degrees with my educational doctorate from University of Pennsylvania.
Being a teacher became my passion after my first education class. I saw first hand the impact of a good teacher.
From the classroom to the principal's office and the district level – I have done every job in education except bus driver, my journey has been driven by a profound commitment to making a lasting impact on the lives of our children. I'm deeply proud of the difference I've made, but I believe we can do even more together.
That's why I'm running for the Chicago School Board. My mission is clear: to leverage my experience, knowledge, and unwavering passion for education to transform our education system. I aim to empower families by ensuring they have the choices, information, and support they need to thrive and excel. Remember, at the heart of our district's progress are our families and their children.
Let's join hands to build the best education system in the country, one that truly serves the needs of every child. Your support can make this vision a reality.
