Thompson School District R2-J
Director District A
Names appear as they do on the sample ballot. Endorsement is in bold.
Jeff Berg
Kathleen D. Hatanaka
Donna Rice
This
district represents Big Thompson, Ponderosa and Van Buren elementary
schools; Bill Reed Middle School; and Ferguson and Loveland high
schools. Candidates are Kathleen D. Hatanaka, Jeff Berg and Donna Rice.
Hatanaka has been active on the Big Thompson’s PTA, including as
president, and on the Thompson’s Master Plan and School Advisory
committees. Rice has had a long career in education, including working
at a Thompson School District elementary school, and as a professor in
Wyoming.
Berg, the incumbent, was appointed to the board in August 2012. He told the Loveland Reporter-Herald the
district has been focused on managing revenue issues since his
appointment, but now the focus should be turning to student achievement.
To that end, we give Rice our endorsement for her long history as an
educator.
