HCS's safety protocols should be second to none. Floor locks should be installed to prevent an armed intruder from easy access into the classroom. Teachers should have a quick and easy way to account for students in the event of an emergency (like an app). Safety protocols should include yearly training for active shooters and "Stop the Bleed." Hartland can strengthen its safety protocols.
HCS should promote career prep and trades and recognize academic achievement as athletic accomplishments are celebrated. Curriculum should engage students and should prepare them to be responsible, involved citizens. Teachers must be supported with appropriate resources.
HCS administration must prioritize accurate communication with the public. Parents should be treated with respect and attention. One way to increase transparency is to bring back designated days for parent-teacher conferences. Good communication is key to building relationships and trust, and schools are the foundation of a community. There must be a strong home-school connection.
I am excited to run alongside Jeff Scott, a dad of three Hartland students, school volunteer, and small business owner.
I am excited to run alongside Tyffany Baird, a mom of two Hartland students, a Hartland grad herself, and a very active school volunteer!
Who am I? I'm a wife of 24 years, a mom of three amazing children and a teacher with 27 years of experience in public and private schools. My husband and I have two sons who are Hartland High School graduates and a daughter who is a sophomore. Two German Shorthaired Pointer dogs round out our family. We are active parishioners of St. Pat's in Brighton and I am a member of the Hartland Lion's Club. I teach fifth grade in a neighboring school district.
What's my Hartland experience? For several years, I was a stay-at-home mom and during that time, I was able to substitute teach at almost every school in the Hartland district (Round Elementary, Lakes Elementary, Creekside Elementary, Farms Intermediate School, and Hartland Middle School at Ore Creek). I have also had the privilege of volunteering in my children's classrooms. This includes class parties, one-on-one reading practice, spelling help, and teacher assistance like copying and laminating. Through these experiences, I have met many dedicated teachers and administrators who are committed to excellence in our students' education. My kids have been involved in various activities: Scouting; Encore Youth Theater; Bass Fishing; HAYAA sports; HCS Basketball, Baseball, Cross Country, and Track and Field; Optimist Club; and Class Council. Hartland has a lot to offer.
What are my priorities?
Why me? I know about schools as a parent and as a teacher. I have had the privilege of teaching thousands of students over the course of my career. Teaching is my vocation and I have experienced how education is at its best when it is a three-way partnership among the school, parents, and the student. Schools are the foundation of a community and I want Hartland Schools to be the best they can be.
