Elect ‘articulate, respectful’ Alexa Anderson

As a Acton resident of over 25 years and a former School Committee member, I

enthusiastically support Alexa Anderson for re-election to the School Committee. Alexa first

caught my attention as School Committee chair. She was quite impressive, displaying the

qualities of leadership and thoughtfulness we so desire in all elected officials. Alexa is

knowledgeable, articulate, respectful, and objective. We then connected socially, and I observed her in a more informal setting. I was equally impressed with her open, friendly, and

easy-going nature.

Alexa’s roots in our community are deep. A true Acton family, Alexa and her husband

graduated from CCHS, and their children attend our public schools. Prior to her School

Committee service, she volunteered with the PTGs of Thoreau and Willard Schools, the Milldam

Nursery School Board, the Acton Library, and the Acton Foundation Community Chest.

Experience and continuity are key to School Committee operations enabling second-term

members to hit the ground running. Alexa already understands the School Committee’s complex

budgeting and teacher contract negotiation processes. She leveraged her understanding of our

academic curriculum and results to ensure Acton was accurately represented in the Boston

Magazine School Rankings issue. Alexa has built excellent relationships with school staff and

educators, town personnel and committees, as well as our broader community.

Alexa has a wonderful, positive, confident, and engaging personality. She is also incredibly

competent, experienced, and has displayed a seemingly indefatigable work ethic. Alexa is an

amazing asset to the School Committee, a sound and steady voice in support of our Town’s

children, families, and educators. Do not pass up this wonderful opportunity to have Alexa

continue to serve our community in this important role. Please join me and my husband, Scott, in voting for Alexa Anderson on April 8.
