Grandmothers, Mothers and Women (GMW), This is how we can be sure the education in our local public schools meets our expectations. I think a good place to start is by electing effective school board members; and today we’ll meet 3 candidates from Ward Three.

What do school boards do?

The school boardâ€™s primary responsibilities are to:

Set the vision and goals for the district
Adopt policies that give the district direction to set priorities

Ward Three

and achieve its goals.
Hire and evaluate the superintendent
Manage the collective bargaining process for employees of the district.
Â

Great School Boards members adopt a fiscally sound district budget and pay attention to finances and regularly monitor the fiscal health of the district.

On May 1, 2018 we want to elect a great school board that will Â focus on what is best for all students. They must also focus on student achievements and implementing policies that will ensure success for all students.

Founder Geri Collins In 2002 Grandmothers, mothers and women saving our children was born (GMWSOC) It was time for the hands that rocks the cradles to be heard so the hand burying our children could be put to better use. I knew the problems our children face were huge, the price was high and non-refundable and the currency was their lives. I’m a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, who realized it was going to take a village to raise a child; but the village needed to be fixed by us, (GMW), before we could trust our children to it. Grandmothers, mothers and women (Gmw), Rosa Parks sat down as one woman and changed a nation, now we must stand and make it better.
