Endorsements

“Jamie has a deep desire to make certain that all Pleasanton students have what they need to learn and thrive. She has the courage to ask the hard questions, which sometimes makes people uncomfortable, but her goal is to guide her fellow board members in making the best decisions for the district. “

Jim Hansen, PUSD Administrator and Interim Superintendent, Retired

Ms. Yee's votes and priorities are consistently in the right place to represent students and families. She ensures that all groups have a voice and a chance to speak out.

Jamie brings much more than compassion and empathy. She's also the strictest advocate of accountability, often having the courage to ask the tough questions to ensure our staff is performing at their best. Her mantra is that education should be irresistible, putting the onus on educators to engage and inspire students, something we all want. Something we all need.

Jamie does not make implusive decisions, she has the pulse of the community and the students. A passionate, strong, engaged leader who is a committed to the community and the students. There is no one more qualified to help navigate these uncertain times and move us forward.

As an Elementary parent, Jamie is always approachable, responsive, and helps me to navigate PUSD.

Jamie has been a collaborative voice on the school board for the past 12 years. She advocates for the school district and City to work together on ways to support students and families.

I am proud to endorse Jamie for another term. Jamie has always supported efforts around quality teaching and learning as well as grants we applied for to ensure students and teachers had the best equipment and real-life world learning experience possible. Jamie is dedicated, thoughtful and, always open to new ideas.
