LAS VEGAS, Oct. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Danielle Ford, Trustee of Clark County School Board District F, recently announced her full support for the following candidates running for Trustee in 2020:
Alexis Salt, District E
Tameka Henry, District C
Jeff Proffitt, District B
Lisa Guzman, District A
This year is arguably the most important election in recent history, and given the fact that four out of seven seats are up for grabs, the races for CCSD trustee are probably the most important outside of the presidency. This election will dictate policy affecting 320,000 students for years to come, and it is crucial that the right people are elected.
Trustee Ford stated "The Trustee candidates who's beliefs and ideals about education are aligned with mine, and who I believe could bring REAL, POSITIVE change to CCSD if elected are as follows:"
"Alexis Salt is my pick for Trustee in District E
She's salty, and she has every right to be. Alexis is an experienced classroom teacher who believes in supporting the "whole child": focusing on mental health, teaching real-world skills, and relying less on standardized testing. I've witnessed Alexis speak up at board meetings for years, advocating passionately for students and staff.
Alexis Salt is a force to be reckoned with, and I know that she'd bring the same fire as a CCSD Trustee." stated Ford

"Tameka Henry is my pick for Trustee in District C
Tameka had me at We need more Headstart and pre-k programs throughout CCSD. YASSS TAMEKA! She is one of the most family, and community focused people I've ever met. As a mother of 4, she has firsthand knowledge of the good and bad parts of the district. She doesn't just talk about it, this lady takes action!
Tameka Henry would be a huge asset to CCSD as a board member." stated Ford.
