Santarpio has Energy and Attention to Detail to Make a Difference on Board of Education

To the Editor:

I have got to know Chris Santarpio through his outstanding dedication to our Parent Teacher Organization, and I am delighted to hear that Chris is hoping to build on that experience by joining the School Board. Chris has demonstrated that he really cares that our schools are working well and has gone over and above normal duty to help out. Any time I go to a school district meeting I see him there, asking great questions, and working hard to ensure the best outcomes for kids in our local schools.

The School Board is planning a bond referendum to provide much-needed classroom space, but many residents will be wondering whether all the investments are necessary. Chris has been following this process for years. He understands how important these investments are,  and also has the skills and background to ensure that local residents are getting value for money. He has also considered the needs of families from different schools, and has worked to ensure that improvements benefit everybody.

Chris has the energy and attention to detail to make a difference on the Board. With several extremely important issues facing the Board in the coming years, including the Superintendent search, it’s important that we have people like Chris representing us. Chris is a very open guy, who will be a great team player. If you haven’t got to know him yet, look Chris up — I’m sure you will be impressed!
