Meet and Confer Team

Amanda Markiewicz (Markie) - Landmark

"My vision to make sure that everyone feels heard and supported to retain the teachers we have in GESD.  Retaining teachers and having other staff as well, feel heard and supported, helps them make the informed decision to stay in GESD which in turn helps kids in the classroom.  Having those teachers/staff stay, give the kids a sense of stability and will help them grow and succeed in the classroom and be the best they can be every day they come to school. "

Elizabeth Seifter - Sunset Vista

"I would like to see employees at every level feel respected. Respect comes in many forms including fair compensation and having a seat at the table for all decision making."

"Quality schools and a quality school district start with fully funded classrooms, teachers and staff. There is no other option."
