To the Editor –
I am writing to endorse Ryan Fazio for State Senator in the 36th District. Ryan cares about the issues that are important to New Canaan and has a track record of fighting for our interests in Hartford. He is a bipartisan leader with a track record of delivering for his constituents.
Education is an issue that is important to me. I moved to New Canaan so that my kids could benefit from the high-quality schools that this town offers. These great schools are no accident – they are the product of years of investment, positive parental involvement, exceptional teachers and administrators and a school’s board that is keeps the focus on education.
I am concerned that a one-size-fits-all reading program and proposals for school regionalization would destroy what we have built. We need an ally in Hartford who will understands that the path to a better education system statewide is to celebrate and emulate success, not trying to impede our great schools.
Ryan Fazio knows our town and cares about what is important to us. He will fight for local control in education and against unhelpful mandates from Hartford. Vote for Ryan on November 5th.
