Retain Angie Taylor for School Board District E.
“While I’m proud of the progress we’ve made, I’m keenly aware that there is more work to do. I would like to continue the effort to provide our 64,000 students the world-class education they deserve. This begins with providing our 8,000 educators with the tools and support they need in the classroom.”
