Do you want to do the right thing for NH Senate District 9? How about for the NH community as a whole? Then please vote for Senator Jeanne Dietsch for NH Senate. As a past school board president, I know Dietsch has worked hard to provide better education for all students.

Dietsch knows the issues facing local school districts, having been chair of the ConVal school board. She wrote the legislation protecting districts’ independence regarding curricula and credits. Currently she serves as vice-chair of the Senate Education and Workforce Development Committee. Knowing the educational inequities NH children face and the gross disparities in property tax burdens, she is fighting for a fairer structure to keep all schools well supplied and all teachers adequately supported. Our children are our future and their education matters.

Dietsch is all about the partnership between taxpayers, parents, educators and students. And she is practical. She voted to fast-track the multi-layered system of care in schools that aims to limit bullying and improve student experience and mental health. That will be followed by her IQED plan (Independent Quality Education by District)–designed to provide education choice at the local level while districts provide quality control and ensure balanced opportunities. For example, she’s a co-founder of MAxT Makerspace in Peterborough, which has programs approved through the high school where you can get ConVal High School credit for hands-on craftsmanship training that can lead to certification and a good-paying job right after school.

Please vote for Jeanne Dietsch.
