To the Editor:
Diane Koban is my neighbor and my friend.  I support Diane because we need her presence to provide known leadership to the School Board of District 112, as well as to Victoria and Victoria Elemen-tary School.
Diane has worked to create a healthy and safe environment for all of District 112, as well as to make the District better and more involved as members of the larger community.  She leads the move-ment towards making schools usable to the community during after-school hours with shared resources such as libraries and rec centers.  I have seen up-close the com-mitment of time and energy Diane has made to District 112 over the last 4 years.
Please join me in asking for Diane's continued energy and commitment and in supporting Diane for re-election to the School Board of District 112.

Sally Stuckey has served School Dis-trict 112 for many years as a school nurse and then as District Nurse.  As she was my supervisor during her tenure as Dis-trict Nurse, I and many other colleagues marveled at all she was able to accom-plish.  Sally organized and upgraded the standard for health services here, about 10 to 15 years' worth in just a couple of years.  I hear from other nurses at Ridgeview Medical Center, where she is currently a Nurse Manager, that they feel very lucky to have her there as well.
Sally has been a dedicated parent of two students in this District, a great leader and team builder par excellence, and she has the knowledge and experience to be a great asset to the community.  A vote for Sally Stuckey is indeed a wise investment in our schools and community.
