As a Reiche parent, I know that every child in our city deserves a quality education. It’s crucial that we have skilled, thoughtful and collaborative leaders serving on Portland’s Board of Public Education. For nearly 10 years, Jeanne Swanton has worked with others to deliver results for students by improving crosswalks and reducing class sizes.

As a board member, Jeanne’s focus will be closing the achievement gaps that exist in our schools and collaborating with the City Council and Portland legislators to create sound educational and fiscal policies. Jeanne’s temperament and financial experience will be an asset for Portland students and make her the clear choice for District 2.

On Nov. 6, I’ll be voting for Jeanne Swanton for the Board of Public Education, and I hope you will, too.
