Testimonials

Nancy Thomas’s education and experience personify the kind of leadership we need in the school district. Her institutional knowledge and engineering background are ideally suited for the education of our 21st Century students. Her business acumen and her understanding of budgeting will give the school district the ability to make good decisions. That’s why I’m voting for Nancy. I urge you to do so also.

Nancy can’t sit back any longer and watch the steady decline in enrollment and student achievement in Newark’s schools. She’s ready to jump back in, roll up her sleeves, and revitalize the quality school district we’ve been in the past — supporting programs for students at all levels. For these reasons, I’m supporting her candidacy because I believe that Newark needs Nancy!
