Letter: Vote Brault for Pasco School Board

The Pasco School District is fortunate to have Ryan Brault at the board helm. In a district that has intrinsic budget and socioeconomic challenges, I’ve come to know Ryan personally as a leader eager to serve the whole district and community.

Certainly, the recent strike is on peoples’ minds. While I’m glad teachers got raises even beyond cost-of-living allowances, it’s going to be a challenge for the district to juggle financially for years to come. Ryan gets that and has the financial chops, leadership skills and compassion to make it work. We should make sure he finishes the job.

Pasco School District’s future success is, in largest measure, from determined commitment to remain a district thoughtful of the whole. And, Ryan is the best candidate to continue the job.

Please join me in voting for Ryan Brault for the Pasco School Board.
