I'm Steffani Fine Mykins. Please join me at my home on Sunday, January 26 from 2:00 to 5:00 to meet Joanna Bache Tobin who is running to be our representative on the Board of Education. RSVP by emailing [email protected]. I'll send you the address once you've contacted me.
I'm supporting Joanna because I think she has the experience and the skills to be a powerful advocate for the needs of the students, families and schools of the Annapolis area. Joanna is a parent at Annapolis High where she is the Vice President of the PTSA and she brings decades of experience teaching at the college and continuing education levels, serving on and chairing the board of a private school, and leading accreditation teams evaluating public charter schools around the country. To learn more about Joanna and her views visit her website at JBTforBOE2020.com or follow her on social media @JoannaBacheTobin on Facebook and @JBT4BOE on Twitter.
This is the first time we've been able to vote for our representative on the Board of Education, and it is a critical vote. Joanna is passionate about education, and is devoted to making sure ALL our children have access to the great education they deserve. She will advocate for smaller classes, working to attract and retain the best teachers by bringing teacher pay in line with surrounding counties, adding sufficient counseling, psychological, and social work staff, bringing school start times in line with medical recommendations and developmental needs, and funding transportation appropriately so that our children have safe, reliable transport to and from school.
Come and bring your questions and concerns. And get ready to vote in the primary on April 28th! I look forward to seeing you on January 26th!
