4. What kind of time commitment and other involvement
do you see yourself making to the school district during your term as a
board member?

Chris Benda
I will continue to volunteer at sporting events, and I will also put in
the necessary time as a school board member.
|
Shele Blum
I plan on committing the necessary amount of time it takes to do a
good job. Above and beyond my commitment to the school board, I plan to
volunteer time in the classroom and other school activities.

Rich Herrington
I am committed to making the time necessary to fulfill the position of
school board member. My wife and I have 2 elementary aged children and we
will certainly be involved in volunteering whenever possible.
|
Jim McKean
I will continue to make myself available to patrons, faculty, and staff to
listen to their concerns and issues, and will actively commit time and
talents to fulfill assigned board activities.

Mary Zimmerman
To be an effective school board member, I would need to attend
applicable conferences, access the Iowa Association School Board website,
read professional publications, etc. to educate myself and keep up with
national and state issues facing our district. I would interact with members
of the community, administrators, teachers, parents, and students to receive
feedback on issues. Board packets would have to be thoroughly reviewed prior
to each monthly meeting to ensure productivity. Attendance is critical. One
must serve with clarity, honesty, openness, and fairness.
