Vivian’s Dream
I represent Cloverdale Township on the board. My lifelong career in public education gives me a perspective that is different from most. I believe public schools are the greatest gift that our country’s and state’s founders have provided to us all.
It is my hope to be a positive contributor to our board and fulfill the school corporation’s mission: Success for Everyone. This includes providing safe, clean schools; hiring qualified, dedicated teachers and staff; supporting a challenging curriculum that meets students’ needs regardless of ability; and assuring that our corporation remains financially viable at all times.
Last, and most importantly, it is my distinct pleasure to give back to the Cloverdale Community Schools in gratitude for the education which provided me the foundation for success in my career and success in life. I am blessed to be a CLOVER!!!
