- IT'S ABOUT CHANGE.  IT'S ABOUT CHILDREN.
 - 
It's time we set our priorities straight and ensure that every child graduates prepared to pursue higher education or to enter the work force as a productive member of society.
 - IT'S ABOUT CHANGE. IT'S ABOUT CHILDREN.
 - 
There needs to be a change because the children in Fresno Unified are paying the price for a School Board that lacks leadership and has lost sight of what its priorities should be - the children and the education they receive in the classroom.
 - IT'S ABOUT CHANGE.  IT'S ABOUT CHILDREN.
 - 
I promise to ask the hard questions, insist on answers, and exercise an independent vote.
