3. Why are you running for the school board?

Chris Benda
Give something back to a great school district and employees, also I
have personal interest as I have 2 children grades 6 and 8 in the school
system, and I also think it is my civic duty.

I am running for the school board position because I believe that a
successful school requires parents that are willing to get involved and take
interest in their children's education. My daughter started kindergarten
this year and my son will be in kindergarten next year. Therefore, I feel it
is important to get involved now. As both a parent and a former teacher, I
bring experience from both perspectives to the school board.

I am running for the school board because I’d like to help the school
through this time of growth. I am wanting to serve the community (parents
and students) in working with the administration to help in maintaining the
quality education it provides.

To continue efforts to improve the academic environment in the district and
prepare for future challenges in a growing and educationally dynamic
district;
To develop and defend policies that distinguish the Gilbert School
District as a place for parents to select in the best educational and
emotional interests of their children; and
To effectively marshal financial and personnel resources to strengthen
patron-driven goals.

I love our school, administrators, teachers, and our students. I am so
proud of what we do and how others view us. I want to continue this
tradition. I want to contribute to our school district and be a part of the
process and progress that we make. I make a living by what I get, but I make
a life by what I give.
