Pam has always taken great pride in the education of the students of her district, stating "our children’s education does not end in the classroom.  It is exciting to see the social, leadership, and citizenship skills our students develop.  The challenges of our school districts are constantly changing.  For smaller districts it is increasing difficult to provide students with the opportunities they need while being fiscally responsible.  I am excited to broaden my knowledge and to contribute on the services and opportunities that WSWHE BOCES can provide to component districts."
