I am writing in support of Liz Goodrich who is running for re-election to the Redmond School Board.

Liz is a forward-looking, natural leader who is totally focused on making Redmond schools more effective at preparing all our kids to be successful in the real world — be that immediate employment, a technical/professional education or higher ed.

Liz knows the Redmond School District community. A Redmond resident since the 1990s, she and her veteran husband work here and have raised their kids here. She is heavily networked in the community and is closely attuned to the interests and concerns of her constituents throughout the district. She is as independent as she is committed; definitely not a captive of special interests.

Liz has served effectively on the board during four of the toughest years anyone could have imagined and is eminently qualified and prepared for the challenges that will face the Redmond School Board in the coming four.
