We Did It!
Thanks to the support of so many folks like YOU, we were able to re-energize our School Committee with three new members.
This was no small feat. It was the result of a great deal of focus, determination and good old fashioned hard work. During my small campaign, I met so many good people willing to step up to help.
It was beyond encouraging — it was downright inspiring.
The time I spent meeting new neighbors and exploring parts of Barrington I’d never been to before were simply eye opening. As someone who has travelled extensively, I was reminded of how important it is to just get outside of my house. To leave my neighborhood. To meet others and learn what issues matter to them, and why.
But now the real work begins.
Less than 11 hours after learning of the election results, I attended a Health and Wellness Committee Meeting full of concerned parents. A full two-years after expressing concern over school lunches, they were finally sitting down with representatives from the district’s foodservice provider.
It was both contentious but also powerful to see. Real change is happening, right here in town. People like YOU are standing up and demanding better. And here’s the rub – better is always possible. It’s not always easy, but it’s always possible.
Here’s to a better Barrington, together.
