Letter: Vote Donahoe for Richland School Board

Over the years I have worked with Rick Donahoe on many volunteer projects within Richland schools, including the relatively new Partners for Early Learning organization dedicated to our communities’ youngest learners. Rick is committed to providing quality education for every student.

School board members work through many issues within a district and hear impassioned arguments from every perspective. Rick Donahoe has served on the Richland School Board for the last six years charting a moderate course of clear and fair decisions. He solicits input from parents, teachers and students, he serves the voters of the district by being fiscally responsible, and he serves the students by working to ensure schools are safe and well-run and curriculum standards are met.

Rick Donahoe has done an excellent job on the school board. He has an open-minded approach to issues and ability to reach sound resolutions. He has a strong background in business, project management and education. Rick has the skills, abilities and dedication needed for our school board.

Rick Donahoe has my vote for Richland School District school board position 3.
