I've offered my concession (read exerpts below). Thanks to all my supporters!
Dear Loretta,
I offer my congratulations to you and my concession of our Chewelah School Board race. Well done! Everything I have observed about you shows that you are a thoughtful, intellegent public servant with a valuable public school perspective, both as a parent and as an employee. In addition, Chewelah voters had a choice. In any election, having a choice is better than not having a choice, and for that, we are both to be congratulated!
I will continue to work to support quality education initiatives within Chewelah School District and our region, as I am able. I look forward to supporting the work of the capital levy campaign in the coming months. I encourage you and all the members of the Chewelah School Board to strive to be ever more educated and active as policy leaders, not just within the District, but within the region and our state, and I recommend active involvement in the Washington State School Directors Association (WSSDA).
Sincerely,
Lori Larsen
