Kathy in the News

Whether represented by the Fayette County Educators Association or KY 120 American Federation of Teachers, Kathy recognizes that teachers want to feel supported by the school board.

She supports teachers and staff having an opportunity to vote for Collective Bargaining Agreements. Teachers and staff should be allowed to make this decision for themselves.

Kathy will ensure each managerial audit letter and audit report be provided to the board and the public. Kathy is committed to ensuring the superintendent prioritizes and implements recommendations outlined in managerial audit letters. She will recommend that superintendent evaluations include progress toward audit priorities, financial responsibility, and operational accountability.

Taxpayer dollars should be treated with respect. Kathy believes our community deserves clear, easy to understand information about district finances, spending priorities, and major operational decisions.

Kathy will work to ensure that all current financial documents requested by the board, except those related to personnel matters, are accessible to the public. She will make every effort to ensure that recommended accounting and financial standards are implemented by the superintendent and followed by the district administration.
