Welcome!

My name is Mary Seawell and I am running for Denver Board At-Large, because I am committed to excellence in public education.  I am devoted to creating a comprehensive, quality K-12 education system in Denver.

* I believe in supporting and strengthening neighborhood district schools.

* I believe Denver must provide a variety of school choices, so students may attend schools where they will be successful.

* I believe charter, innovation and performance schools have an opportunity to be successful.  If elected I will work hard to make sure all new schools are strong instructionally and organizationally.

Denver is at a crossroads and I pledge to work as hard as possible to ensure Denver Public Schools provide our children with a world class education.  Our kids are depending on it.
