To the editor:
As a mother and Fayetteville resident, I am writing to urge your readers to support Kelly Fumarola for Fayetteville Manlius School Board. Kelly is a concerned and active parent of elementary and middle school students and has a vested interest in making sure F-M schools succeed for our kids.
Her passion for the future of our children and ensuring that F-M school district adapt to face the challenges of a new age prompted her to run for school board. If we want F-M to remain one of the best school districts across the state and country, we need smart, forward-thinking leaders like Kelly on our school board. She has used social media and grassroots activation to draw people together to discuss the challenges facing the district. She is willing to listen to all sides of the story and make educated decisions with the future success of our students in mind.
As a working mother, she understands the changing work environment, the difficult balance parents must do and the tools we must equip today’s children with to prepare them for new jobs in a very different world than most of us faced upon our high school graduation. She is just the kind of leader we need in our community and on our school board. Please join me and vote Kelly Fumarola for School Board on May 16.
