To the Editor:

I have three words to describe Kathryn Fetchick: Honest, Informed, and Dedicated. I am writing because I believe that she would be the ideal representative for all Newtown residents on the Board of Education. As a Newtown taxpayer and member of the Sandy Hook Elementary PTA, I have seen how hard she has worked to understand the impact of our educational system and its issues, and then tackle them in a fair and balanced way.

As Sandy Hook’s Board of Education Representative, Kathy Fetchick helps keep the Sandy Hook community informed as to the workings of these issues. She understands the big picture and I believe she will be the best choice for meeting the needs of all Newtown taxpayers and our educational system.

Please don’t forget to go out and vote for Kathy Fetchick on Tuesday, November 6.
