I am writing this letter in support of Ginger Schaaf, who is running for the D38 School Board. As a former military wife, teacher, and mother of two former students in D38, the entire reason we relocated to Monument was the excellent and outstanding reputation of D38. During that period nearly 20 years ago, Monument was a tight-knit community known for its small-town values, traditions, and family-friendly atmosphere—and although we have grown significantly since then, it is still the same and, in my opinion, still one of the best school districts in the state.
Ginger Schaaf is running as a conservative candidate for our school board. A former military wife, Ginger is an active and involved mother with two young children attending district schools, so she is extremely invested in School Board outcomes. She advocates for parental involvement in all levels of student education. She supports our outstanding and very successful local charter school: Monument Academy. She supports safe spaces for girls in bathrooms, locker rooms, and sports. She is against pornographic content in our school libraries. She has a conservative view of property tax increases, MLOs, and bonds, preferring to petition other funding resources that will not impact homeowners who have already seen their property taxes double and, in some cases, triple in our community. In essence, Ginger Schaaf represents the same traditional family values that Monument is known for. She is the most outstanding, common-sense candidate for D38, without question.
Vote for Ginger Schaaf for D38 School Board: the common sense candidate who will advocate for safety and excellence.
