Hi my name is Karen,
I am running for TDSB School Trustee in the new Ward 10, representing Beaches–East York and Scarborough Southwest.
I am a life-long advocate for public education.
In 1995, shortly after the birth of my first child, I put my baby in a Snuggly, picked up a protest sign and headed to Queen’s Park to fight cuts to public education.
More than thirty years later,
I am still fighting.
This time, I’m asking you to fight alongside me. I’m running because I believe public education is one of the most important things we can build together — and because I am deeply concerned about what is happening to it. For three decades, I have worked with children, youth, parents, and communities. I have seen extraordinary teachers and education workers change young people's lives. I have seen schools become places of belonging, creativity, and possibility.
But I have also watched decades of budget cuts take their toll on our children.
behind every budget cut is a child.
A child trying to learn in a sweltering hot classroom.
A student struggling with their mental health.
A teacher trying to meet the complex needs of their students.
A family fighting to get help for a child with special learning needs.
A young person who doesn't see themselves or their community reflected in what they are learning, or in the decisions being made about their future.
Our children deserve better.
Join me to help build a better education system for our children and our future.
