One of the best things that can happen to the Kent School District this fall is electing Leslie Hamada as a school board member. Leslie has vast experience through countless volunteer hours with the district in a variety of \u201ckid friendly\u201d opportunities.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Leslie has set up after-school programs with at-risk students, volunteered as an after-school tutor and has the respect of many of the teachers, administrators and parents in the Kent School District. In addition to this, Leslie has worked with state legislators in support of legislation that enhances student learning opportunities for our students.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

For example, Leslie has been instrumental in the effort to secure legislation that will provide quality physical education and recess for all students in Washington state. Leslie is a tireless worker and puts the needs of the students ahead of those needs of the parents, teachers and administrators, and this is a good thing. Education today is all about student learning; the bottom line for Leslie will be what is best for the students and their learning to ensure that they will become productive students and adults.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

We need to elect Hamada as a Kent School District school board member, it\u2019s one of the best things we can do.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
