Nancy is...

A strong advocate who uses her voice to represent you.

An effective leader who delivers results.

A connector and partner who helps find common ground to move us forward.

Committed to our students, families, and communities.

Being a trustee is her full time job, and public education is her lifelong passion.

Priorities

Building Schools where they are most needed

Improved Funding to ensure student success in a growing city

Better Transportation options so our students get to class safely and quickly

Greater Inclusion so that every student and family is welcome

Meaningful Engagement so that you are heard and represented

Accomplishments

Increased funding

The Alberta government recently made an increase in funding, but we need to do more. I will advocate to increase base funding to cover costs of inflation and meet student needs in a growing city.

New schools

Smart, evidence-based advocacy from the Board of Trustees means that Calgary is moving forward with 15 new schools.

​

​As CBE enrolment continues to increase, even more publicly accessible community schools are urgently needed. I will continue to use my skills to successfully advocate for the additional learning spaces that students and teachers need.

Commitment

Student success is at the centre of all CBE decisions. Ensuring every single child in our city is able to attend an excellent public school is the foundation for community success.

Request lawn sign

Campaigns matter, elections matter, and sharing support for Nancy will help her at the polls.

We'll leave a sign at your door for you to place on your lawn, and we'll remove the sign the day after the election.

Thanks for your request! We'll respond as soon as possible.
