The Community Is Standing Together

I am so honored to have met so many people that care our our school district. Tomorrow we will present the Baldwin Whitehall School Board with a petition calling for rescinding the position appointed to Martin Schmotzer and vacating the seats appointed until an election can be held.

As of today we have 1,134 signatures from people, we have many emails from people that are concerned and want to do more to help. We have talked about how to stay organized and help our community make informed votes to the school board.

The people I have met give me great faith in our community and make me proud to be a resident of the Baldwin Whitehall School District.

Tomorrow, please join us as the Baldwin Whitehall School Administration Building to hand the petition and signatures over. 

I want to personally thank you all for your continued support on this mission, this is not the end but the beginning of a long mission to make our voices be and stay heard.

Thank you
