 Re-Elect 

Jeannie Kaplan

for Denver Public School Board

 

Dear Neighbors,

 

    I have decided to run for re-election to the Denver School Board in November 2009.

    
    My Mom and Dad were both public school teachers.  They taught me early the importance of a quality public education system.  My husband Stephen and I are products of public schools and both our children attended Denver Public Schools.
I believe public education is a fundamental cornerstone of our democracy.


    I am so excited by the opportunity to serve the citizens of Denver for another term.  Those of you who have contacted me with your concerns over the last 4 years know that I respond promptly.  I will continue to put the interests of our children first.

Sincerely,



Jeannie Kaplan




Denver's Channel 8 provided each candidate time to talk about the campaign.

The DENVER POST endorsed me. Since I am running unopposed, this was quite a nice surprise.
Here is what they said:

District 3, central Denver

Jeanne Kaplan, who is running unopposed for re-election, has served well for the past four years in this unpaid position.

Though we don't always agree with Kaplan, it's always good to have someone on the board who asks difficult questions. Furthermore, her efforts to bring greater transparency to the district are to be applauded.

She's been a valued member of the board and we recommend her for re-election.
