“It’s important for families, schools, and communities to believe in and work together to educate all children, especially those in underrepresented areas," she said. "Providing the solid foundation necessary for students to be successful in college, careers, and life is a key to preparing our future workforce and leaders for this region. Leading this work for the Renton School District is an amazing opportunity.”
