The Tacoma school district is in disarray--broken trust abroad in the community, a board that alternates between abdicating authority during the strike to brazen assertions of power to jerry-rig the Superintendent selection process, and more. In this election we have a chance to say something about this, and the best mechanism for doing so is a vote for Scott Heinze.
Mr. Heinze knows the issues, understands the policy process, works well with and in the community, and attends to financial realities. More importantly, he listens--you can have a real conversation with him in which he’ll engage you and respond to what you say and think.
As a school board candidate last summer, I heard all the candidates many times and in various settings. Of the four remaining candidates, Mr. Heinze has consistently maintained a sharp focus on the important issues before the school district. He is not flamboyant, but he is what we need--knowledgable, reliable and committed to the success of our schools.
