Letter: Fillauer dedicated to helping young people

To the Editor:

The first, second, and third priority for any school board member should be the welfare of children.

Over the past 27 years, I have witnessed first-hand the dedication of Keys Fillauer to young people as he has raised more than $600,000 for the Ronald McDonald House. In my capacity as executive director of the House, I have seen Keys’ drive, integrity, and commitment to causes he believes in.

Keys Fillauer has been an educator, coach, school board member, and most importantly, a tireless advocate for his community. But I have seen the man who never asks why. He only asks how.

I urge your support for a school board candidate I would be proud to have leading my children’s schools into the future.
