Today I filed petitions to run in the November election for South Bend School Corporation Board of Trustees. I also launched a new campaign website http://wheeler4rkids.org to convey why I'm running and what I hope to accomplish if elected.
I want to make clear that I'm not running against anything or anyone; rather, I'm running for a better outcome for our children. I don't claim great expertise in the field of education, but I'm a quick learner. I also have a lot of experience working on or with governing boards and understand the proper relationship with chief administrators.
Our daughter entered Kindergarten this year, and I have reflected recently upon my experience in the Dream Team for Unity Mentoring Program. These experiences inform me, and certain things seem clear. I plan to discuss this and other things with you in the coming weeks.

does this mean i get to swiftboat your opponents?
just kidding, everyone...i think it's going to become abundantly clear that you're more inclined to, as you said, run for something than to run against people.
Don,
Very glad to hear you are throwing your hat into the ring. Can I have permission to share this info on other local lists?
best,
Karl
To fake: You'll need a fleet! There are at least 13 candidates for 2 spots. Deadline to file is this Friday. There likely will be more.
To Karl: Thanks very much. Any help getting the word out is greatly appreciated.
