'Reasons why Eleni Carter should be re-elected'

| 23 Feb 2012 | 03:42

    I am writing this letter in support of Eleni Carter’s candidacy for re-election to the Monroe-Woodbury Board of Education and to share with the readers the reasons why she should be re-elected. I have known Eleni for eight years, ever since we met while pushing our children on the swing set at the local park. As I have gotten to know her through the years, I have seen Eleni’s dedication, integrity, professionalism and genuine care for others spill over into everything she does. Eleni’s commitment to our community has been evident in her leadership on the school board. Eleni cares about academic achievement and ensuring that our youth are successful in school and later in life. I also know she cares about all the taxpayers in this district who have sacrificed so much in recent years with the downturn in the economy. In the three years she has been on the Board of Education, Eleni has worked hard to bring spending under control. Eleni is in touch with this community and has always been accessible. She knows what is best for our children and taxpayers, and that is why I will vote for Eleni Carter on May 17 and why I urge the other voters to do the same. Sincerely, Donna Binder Central Valley
