To the editor:
I am supporting Megan Schwalm for a two-year term on Iowa City Community School District board. She is committed to providing leadership that builds upon the many strengths of ICCSD and charters a meaningful path for the future.
I have had the pleasure of collaborating with her on various projects addressing equity in our community. In all of our interactions, she thoughtfully balances a focus on individuals with a critical examination of systems, structures and policies. She does not shy away from difficult conversations and decisions.
I am confident that she has the capacity and determination to keep kids first while thinking globally about the district at large.
