Election Day Eve Reminder – Board of Education

As much fun as it has been to employ the endorsement trope (this blog’s homage to legacy media editorial practices), I will most likely be retiring that practice moving forward.  With that in mind, here (once again) are “our” choices for the Howard County Board of Education.

With voters having the ability to cast their ballots for up to four BoE candidates, I strongly encourage my readers to vote for:

Sabina Taj: http://sabinataj.org/

Jen Mallo: http://votejenmallo.com/

Robert Wayne Miller: http://www.miller4boe.org/

In order to keep this post concise, I will focus on the common threads.  All three individuals:

-       Are highly analytical

-       Are very knowledgeable about educational practices and policies

-       Possess a maturity of thought and the ability to work effectively with others

-       Are focused on solving educational challenges and not on furthering personal agendas

-       Have strong backgrounds in education advocacy on behalf of key stakeholders (most notably, students and educators)

-       Have demonstrated their abiding commitment to practicing, and not just talking about, Howard County values

These three, if elected, will help the Board of Education move forward on pressing issues related to inclusion and equity.

While some of the other candidates possess admirable personal qualities and/or commendable track records in education-centric advocacy roles, I believe Mallo, Taj, and Miller are the strongest choices and, collectively, would bring a wealth of deep insights and diverse life experiences to the Board.

That is why I support Sabina Taj, Jen Mallo, and Robert Wayne Miller for the Howard County Board of Education.

In Solidarity.
