Letter: Write-In Candidate for Adams-Cheshire School Committee
I would like to announce that I am a write-in candidate for a seat on the Adams-Cheshire Regional School District Committee.
With all the budget cuts over the years and the possibility of school consolidation within the district, I know decisions will be difficult unless state aid increases. Otherwise the district will continue to see more decreases in funding. The loss of revenue has me concerned for the future of our children, our teachers and our communities.
Contrary to recent articles in the news and on social media, I know that we have some of the best teachers and staff working in our district that put the students first and give 110 percent. I believe that teachers who love teaching, teach children to love learning. Education is the most powerful weapon we can offer to help change the world.
I am a full-time homemaker and my fiance and I have three children, two attend school in the district and our third child will be entering preK in the fall 2017. I currently serve as co-chair of the C.T. Plunkett Elementary School PTG. The past four years I have volunteered as a team mom for the Adams-Cheshire Youth Football Program.
On May 2, please consider voting for me by writing my name on the ballot as follows:
Jennifer Andrews, 11 Summer St., and fill in the circle.
I look forward to representing you on the School Committee.
Jennifer Andrews
Adams, Mass.
