I am writing in support of Katherine Cooper, candidate for Saugus Union School District governing board for Trustee Area 3. As an SUSD parent, I find it imperative for our children to be represented by someone who genuinely cares about all children’s educational growth, development and success. I find it necessary to have a representative who is responsible, nonpartisan, centered and fair in their governing role. A representative who wishes to best support our wonderful teachers and district staff. I am confident that the representative I have described above is incumbent Katherine Cooper.  Katherine Cooper cares deeply about educational growth, development and success. She has always responded quickly to questions or concerns with warmth, kindness, knowledge, a deep understanding of how our district must function and an eagerness to not only address real concerns, but also to solve them. Having a representative in this position who cares about each one of our children, as individuals, is so important to me. Our children deserve a forward-thinking individual who will represent them and advocate for proper educational development while best supporting their individualized needs.  I am positive that SUSD will continue to thrive if Katherine Cooper is reelected.
