Lake Orion School Board Election Is About Children and Families

Angela Nasso - a school board candidate with integrity and compassion

Angela Nasso For School Board

A voice for children
and families

The hundreds of political lawn signs and the multitude of
unsolicited phone calls hawking a particular candidate or proposal have reached
the point where many voters have become disenchanted with the entire voting
process.  Voters are now searching for
candidates and issues which directly impact them.  One of those issues is who will represent the
Lake Orion School Board.  Two candidates
are vying for that slot one of them being Angela Nasso.  Frankly, when I examine the credentials of
the candidates for any position I look for someone who has a vested interest in
serving that position – someone who in fact wants to strengthen and improve the
community in which she or he serves – someone who is personally aware of the
intricacies and responsibilities of the role – someone who will operate with a
sense of integrity and compassion and urgency. 
In the school board position I look for someone who has offspring in the
school system and thus knows and understands firsthand the demands placed on
the system and understands every day the joys and sometimes the disappointment
and frustration of the school experience through those offspring.  Furthermore, I look for a candidate who can
represent the community from a parent point of view.  Sometimes injecting candidates into the mix
who emerge from a strict business background can be deleterious – while certain
aspects of operating a school district obviously need some business acumen
there is a greater need for The Three C’s - 
common sense, compassion and credibility.  And those are the attributes that Angela Nasso
brings to the table.  So when you
complete your absentee ballot or when you travel to the polls on Tuesday,
November 6, cast a vote for children and families – Angela Nasso for school
board.
