As a GPPSS parent, I’m proud of our school district and want to serve on the school board to improve it. My background in public health and education makes me a great candidate. I’m passionate about creating a safe learning environment for ALL kids! 

Partisan politics has no place on the school board, so I’m not seeking endorsement by any political party. That means I need as many individual donations as I can get. I’ll use this money to purchase lawn signs and print literature to send out to voters. 

Our teachers at GPPSS are a phenomenal part of what makes the district such a great place for students, and I'm proud to be endorsed by the GPEA (our local educators' union). Parent volunteers create awesome learning opportunities through field trips and extracurricular activities. We need a Board of Education that listens to the community and responds to their concerns, while keeping the focus on what’s best for our students. I hope you’ll consider contributing to my campaign!

    “Valerie has a young child in the school system and has experienced both good & disappointing aspects of GPPS. Her career in public health equips her to dig into & draw insights from data. We need her empathy and analytic skills on our Board of Education. She has my vote!”

    “I support a School Board candidate who believes in inclusion and in teaching all of history not just the parts that are self-serving. In addition, Grosse Pointe does not need a Charter School.”

Thank you!

Thank you so much to my first donors! I’ve placed an order for bookmarks that include some of my goals for the Board of Education. Another priority of mine is transparency, so I plan to update this page to let you know where your money is going. I truly appreciate every hard-earned dollar that’s been contributed so far!
