Dear neighbors,
I ask for your vote on March 25 for the two-year position on the Lincoln School Committee. With your support, I hope both to bring the perspective of my years in Lincoln community service and to pay forward the great benefit that Lincoln’s commitment to education has given to my now-adult children.
My husband Gary and I have been active in the Lincoln community since we moved here in 1990. I now serve on the Scholarship Committee and as a trustee of Farrington Nature Linc (a children’s program based in Lincoln). I’ve been a Lincoln Public Library trustee and president of the Lincoln League of Women Voters. When my children were students here, I served on the Principal’s Council, the METCO Coordinating Committee, as a Girl Scout leader, and Sunday school teacher, and as active supporter of Lincoln sports, drama, outdoor recreation, and music for children.
I believe that as technology and cultural diversity broaden and challenge the ways we provide education, community engagement and critical thinking become even more valuable. All of us are needed to provide the inspiration, guidance, experience, financial oversight, safety and affection our children should have from their home town and school.
I can think of nothing more vital to Lincoln than the strength of our schools, and I look forward to working with you for all our children and for “the village” that loves them.
Sincerely,
Susan Hands Taylor
2 Beaver Pond Rd., Lincoln
