To the editor:
Nancy is an experienced contributor and incumbent for reelection to the L-S School Committee. Her focus is always on what is best for the entire Lincoln-Sudbury school community. She excels at developing productive relationships, building consensus and connection between constituents and town boards, and taking the time to thoroughly understand a problem and seek out objective, practical solutions. She draws on considerable support in both Lincoln and Sudbury.
Nancy is dedicated to and passionate about public education. She believes in delivering high-quality education to every student; with a background in economics, Nancy also fully understands the pressures that budgetary constraints and unfunded mandates place on this goal. Solutions require practical and innovative problem solving in the context of an ongoing dialogue with everyone involved: students, teachers, community, administration, parents and her School Committee colleagues. Nancy’s communication and interpersonal skills transform this dialogue into a productive process. Specifically during her tenure on the L-S school committee, she has been actively involved in the hiring of a strong administrative team and also worked closely with the administration in securing the construction of the solar parking canopy that is now underway. Most recently she was a participant in a successful collective bargaining negotiation that allowed for modest growth in compensation and gains in employee contributions for active and retiree healthcare. This negotiation positions the high school to begin addressing long-term benefit liabilities in earnest.
Elections take place in both Lincoln and Sudbury on Monday, March 30. Please vote, and please consider giving your vote to Nancy Marshall for Lincoln-Sudbury School Committee.
Sincerely,
Cathy Rogers
Weston Road
