re-elect mark stegeman

I joined the TUSD Board three years ago, because of my concern for the inadequate preparation of many students entering the University of Arizona. I have promoted, often against strong resistance, many of the changes which are creating the foundation for TUSD's future success. It is critical to increase transparency and accountability, to build on existing strengths, and to make achievement for all students the top priority. I am committed to restoring TUSD’s historical position as one of Arizona’s best districts.

My management experience in the private sector and position as a professor of economics in the Eller College of Management give me the expertise to help TUSD compete. My procurement initiatives have saved TUSD millions of dollars without reducing benefits or services.

Our students’ and our nation’s future depends on restoring the strength of American public education. Please help me to keep the momentum for change in TUSD.

ENDORSEMENTS:

Arizona Daily Star Endorses Mark Stegeman.
"Stegeman immerses himself in the details of issues - he is an economist, after all - and he does not come to positions without a great deal of research and thought. He is not afraid to be unpopular, and we think that while his approach may aggravate other board members and TUSD employees, it ultimately benefits kids."
