I am a CFSD parent and resident. In 2020, we moved to Tucson from Michigan. Given Arizona’s bottom national rankings in public school investment, I questioned whether to send our kids to public schools. I’m also an economist. So I drilled down into the data. CFSD schools are outperforming many public schools across Arizona and the country. Our schools are not failing. I have been blown away by the professionalism and excellence of CFSD teachers and administrators. I trust them to prepare my kids for a future workforce that will demand critical thinking, professional skills, and ability to work with different types of people. As a community, we need to vote loud and clear – we trust our highly qualified teachers and administrators. They are doing an amazing job. Our school board must focus on retaining and continuing to hire such exemplary professionals, not politicizing our schools. I am voting for Jacquelyn Davoli, Eileen Jackson, and Tom Logue for the CFSD school board. I hope you will join me.
