I want to thank my fellow residents of district 4 of Prince Georgeβs County. I am immensely grateful to the families, friends, and loyal supporters who so generously contributed their money, time and effort to our campaign during this very long primary season due to the pandemic.
Being an effective education board member involves listening to constituents, translating their concerns into workable proposals, and building consensus to implement them. No one could do this job without the involvement and openness of the people they represent. You have taken the time to share with me your ideas, your concerns, and your aspirations, and I sincerely appreciate your willingness to discuss what really matters to you. Therefore, it is vital for whoever gets to represent us, listens to the thousands plus who voiced their concern at the ballot box.
We canβt continuously see graduation rate that is 78% with overcrowded classrooms that are less equipped with the resources necessary to compete in the 21st century. Mediocracy is not an option. Our students and families deserve better.
Our work does not end here. I have learned the importance of being civically involved for the benefit of my community. I hope you will make the same commitment to stay involved now that the election is over.
We've challenged the status quo and let the residents of this wonderful district and the county know that we can do better than what we have now.
Mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters, words can't express how much I appreciate your support and your believe of our mission. Thank you!
