Why should someone vote for you? There are many reasons that set me apart from the other candidates, such as being a veteran or my educational degrees, yet nothing compares to the 16 years of classroom experience. No other candidate has been in the trenches and seen the struggles that go on every day. To truly understand the needs of our student, you must have walked in the shoes of a teacher.
