Deanna Krzykowski
Democrat
Board of Education candidate
Why are you running for this position?

“I am currently on the Planning commission.”
What experience makes you qualified for this position?
“I have a range of experience advocating for the mental health system learning the needs of the schools system and its employees, the students and family units. Attempting to balance the struggles so children can receive a quality education is everyone’s goal and can be approached form many angles. My knowledge of many conventional and creative problem solving techniques can help to relieve some of the struggles currently faced.”

“Ensuring the students in our educational system receive quality learning is the main priority. There have been obvious recent issues with the budget that need to be looked at and addressed.
