To the editor:
Jason Lewis will make an excellent member of the Iowa City school board. With the need to solve the contentious issues facing the Iowa City schools, the board needs someone who has educational experience, a clear grasp and a broad view of the issues, as well as being an excellent communicator. Lewis is such a person.
As a past president of Mark Twain Elementary PTO, a member of the Magnet Schools Task Force, a foster parent and a humanities teacher at the University of Iowa College of Medicine, he has the professional and real-world experience to be a strong, fair voice dealing with a broad range of students and student needs.
The Iowa City Federation of Labor and The Cedar Rapids Gazette have recognized these qualities and have endorsed him. He will be an excellent member of the Iowa City school board.
