Melissa Potter for School Board

Melissa Potter for School Board I am running for the Zone 3 position on the Beaverton School Board.

As the first person in my family to graduate from college, I started my teaching career as a high school science teacher as Southridge High School in Beaverton, Oregon, and taught there for six years. After receiving a doctorate in Educational Leadership, I taught education coursework at Portland State University and am currently doing similar work at Oregon State University. As a member of the Be

averton community, I value my own volunteer opportunities, both in the community and in the schools. A little about my background, I grew up in Hillsboro, Oregon where my parents owned a small trucking company. My husband is an engineer with the Oregon Department of Transportation, and we have two middle school children in Beaverton. I am running for the School Board because of a deep commitment to our community and our children. I have personally witnessed the profound impact education has on a child’s future and the future of our community. If you honor me with this office, I will make students our first priority in policy and budget decisions. I will use taxpayer dollars wisely by supporting what is working and having the courage to discontinue what does not produce results. I will build trust by seeking and listening to the voices of all stakeholders, including parents, staff, students and the community at large.

Thank you Budget Committee volunteers!

Until we get the financial support we need from the state, our Budget Committee will continue to grapple with challenging decisions on behalf of our students and community.

Thank you Budget Committee for your time, questions and insights this evening!

And please advocate on behalf of our student—write to your local representatives to let them know we need schools funded at the $10.3 billion level:
