Letter to the editor: SSC member urges votes for Joachim

March 18, 2018

(Editor’s note: St. George is a member of the Sudbury School Committee.)

To the editor:

I am encouraging all voters to write-in “Ellen Joachim” for the Lincoln-Sudbury School Committee. She is a known supporter of our students who has tirelessly served and advocated with integrity for our Sudbury schools, staff and students for over 15 years.

I have had the privilege and pleasure of working with and alongside Ellen for many years, starting at Nixon School as fellow PTO members and, more recently, for five years on the SPS School Committee. As a colleague she is collegial, fair, respectful, and able to take on and follow through with whatever needs to be done. She is a well-respected leader—a PTO chair at Nixon, and most recently School Committee vice chair, chair, then my vice chair.

As a trusted leader, Ellen has worked tirelessly for the academic and social/emotional wellbeing of all our students. Ellen is a good listener, respectful of all stakeholders and able to ask tough questions and make tough decisions. She has performed many duties including active liaison positions on multiple town boards. She has worked closely with Chief Nix and SPS administration to ensure comprehensive and strategic safety measures were put in place across the schools.

Ellen has been active in attending multi-town School Committee roundtable discussions and supported tri-district collaboration between LPS, L-S, and SPS. A former lawyer, she is well organized and process-oriented, and she has a solid understanding of budget drivers across Sudbury, negotiation experience, and an eye for efficiencies whenever possible.

I have no doubt that Ellen will bring fresh eyes, ears and thoughtfulness to the Lincoln-Sudbury School Committee. She has true commitment and history as she is a former LSRHS graduate, and has been a parent at L-S for several years, with her third son a rising senior in the fall of 2018.

Please write in your vote for “Ellen Joachim” for Lincoln-Sudbury School Committee on Monday, March 26. Your vote matters!

Sincerely,

Lucie St. George
Concord Rd., Sudbury
