I will fight for all students; putting action behind the District’s slogan to Inspire, Educate, and Elevate instead of simply using it as a catchphrase.
Amy’s commitment to NMUSD:
Academic Excellence: Though the district boasts a 94.7% graduation rate, only 36.8% of 10th graders are reading at above grade level and 66.95% of 11th graders are failing math standards.
I will work to improve academic outcomes while advocating for the removal of controversial programming and materials in our schools.
Fiscal Responsibility: NMUSD is ranked #25 of 28 Orange County districts in fiscal health.
I will work to adopt responsible strategies for budget management. I will be a better financial steward of our abundant revenues, prioritizing classroom-based student achievement.
Accessibility, Transparency, Communication & Engagement: I will work to restore the partnership between parents and educators, and to ensure that transparent and responsive governance and leadership with respect to parent rights is prioritized.
Physical Safety: I will work to audit security, policy and practice and implement effective measures that create a safe learning environment.
Support Educators: I will support and respect educators and strengthen trust to retain talent.
