Other facts
My family has enjoyed living in Barrington for the past 18 years and my children have attended Barrington schools for much of this period. We originally chose to move to Barrington based upon the strength of the town's schools and have been thrilled with our children's experience. I seeking re-election as a member of the School Committee so that I can contribute to our great community and improve the town's primary asset -- our school system. I will work to enrich our students educational experience, enhance our learning environment and improve student achievement, always being mindful of our duty to maintain fiscal responsibility. I will support greater efficiencies in those exceptional programs and practices already in place and encourage our team to identify new opportunities for maximizing the learning potential for all students. With good people, open minds and common sense leadership we will find creative solutions to the financial issues the town faces and Barrington Schools will again be the top performing District in the State and one of the best in New England.
