HANNAH'S VISION

My name is Hannah Witkin. I am a junior at Long Reach High School, and I am seeking your vote to become the next Student Member of the Board of Education. I am pursuing this position because I believe that a successful education system lies at the heart of a successful society. As your Student Member, I will go out of my way to ensure open lines of communication to all students. I believe it is crucial that the SMOB exhibits empathy and a willingness to learn. Though I have a general understanding of the Howard County student experience, I recognize that there are thousands of lives and opinions to which I have yet to be introduced. I am always willing to improve my awareness of student life and adapt my stances to represent these experiences as completely and comprehensively as possible. I will seek to be a voice for all and consider my personal opinion to be of equal value to any other singular student belief.
