jitters

Well, that was fun. We had the PGDTA/DPAC sponsored all-candidates forum tonight. Good questions and some interesting responses. Nice not to have any hecklers. It seemed that each person, in their own way, was focused on students. I'm really going to have to get used to the public speaking part of being trustee if I'm elected - I tend to think of what I want to say about things after while, after some time to sort it out. It was nice to meet the other candidates, and get a sense of what they would bring to the board. I kind of wish I could redo the rural schools question as I wanted to talk about the Dunster experience and the need to reopen Mackenzie Elementary. Oh well, part of the learning curve I guess.
