August 25, 2007

Dear Family and Friends,

Having the opportunity to serve on Manchester’s Board of Education is a dream come true for me as it allows me to marry my great passions in life . . . family, education and civic responsibility. Winning the election will empower me to use my life experiences to work with board members, school officials, and residents to ensure that our students graduate with the knowledge, skills and strategies necessary for a healthy and successful life . . . a mandate for excellence in education.

In order to achieve that reality, I need your support. I urge you to cast your vote on November 6 AND, if possible, to send a donation. Help me to make sure that Manchester’s children have the bright future that they deserve. Thank you.

Mary-Jane

P.S. Please make sure to tell at least 3 friends to vote for me. EVERY vote counts!!!!
