Alice Turkel"Schools should be places that students
want to attend, where teachers receive
the resources and the professional development
they need to help every student succeed and
where families feel confident their children are
being challenged and supported."

Alice believes that schools should...

• foster the academic and intellectual growth of all students.

• support students’ physical and mental health.

• welcome families as partners in every school.

• be integrated through choice; families should be able to send their child to a school with an educational philosophy they support.

On School Committee Alice will insist that...

• students needs come first.

• equity in education informs all decisions.

• difficult budget decisions be fully explained.

During her four terms on School Committee Alice worked to...

• improve curriculum in all subject areas—with a focus on the arts.

• create more athletic opportunities for elementary and high school students.

• increase instructional aide time in the classroom.

• send more funding directly to schools for school-based initiatives.

• support different educational philosophies within our school system.
