My family has lived and prospered in this community for five generations. It is now time to offer my investment of time, effort and talents to the community.
I have inherited the tradition of public service from my grandfather, Jesse Storey who served as reeve of St Vincent Township for many years in the 1940's and 50's and my late mother, Jean Sullivan whose long and dedicated service volunteering in several capacities came to an end with her illness and subsequent death last year.
Her greatest passion was the education of our youth as key to optimism for the future. This she demonstrated in her long term as trustee for the Bluewater District School Board , characterized by loyalty and devotion to her responsibilities, by integrity and enlightenment.
The torch has been passed. I present my candidacy to be considered to serve on a school board committed to the best interests of our children. My background as a mother, grandmother, business person, crafts-person and observer/participant of several educational systems has fostered the strong belief that we must work with the gifts of our students and provide them with the skills and supports to best fulfil their diverse aptitudes and set them on realistic goal paths, be that academic or in much-needed trades or service industries.
The unique rural experience requires sensitivity to the specific needs of our young people and an active response to those needs. I feel that by serving on the Bluewater District School Board, I can work to assist in conveying the sense of self-worth to each individual child as he or she matures to become a member of this proud community.
