Introduction
My vision for Richmond schools begins with a simple belief: leadership starts with listening. We need a school system that supports both academic excellence and student well-being — guided by thoughtful decision-making, responsible stewardship, and a deep commitment to our community.
我對列治文學校的願景始於一個簡單的信念：領導，從聆聽開始。我們需要一個既重視學業成就，也關顧學生身心發展的教育體系——以審慎的決策、負責的管理，以及對社區的深切承擔為基礎。
Pillar 1: Leadership by Listening | 聽取民意
“Listening first. Leading together”
School trustees must serve as a bridge between the Board and the community. I am committed to listening with care, representing your concerns, and ensuring that decisions reflect the voices of parents, students, and educators.
Goals:
• Host regular community coffee chats and listening sessions across Richmond
• Ensure major policy decisions are informed by direct feedback from parents and teachers
「先聆聽，再帶領。」
學務委員應成為教育局與社區之間的橋樑。我會用心聆聽，真誠回應大家的關注，確保教育決策能反映家長、學生與教師的聲音。
目標：
• 在列治文各區定期舉辦社區咖啡交流與聆聽活動
• 確保重大政策制定能參考來自家長與教師的直接意見
Pillar 2: Partnership with Parents | 家校合作
“Parents are essential partners in education.”
With my background in family and youth development, I believe families must be treated as true partners in education. Every parent — regardless of language or background — deserves a clear, respectful, and meaningful voice in their child’s education.
Goals:
• Build on existing multilingual supports to ensure all families can access information clearly and participate fully.
• Create more opportunities for parents to engage meaningfully with the school district
「家長是教育中不可或缺的合作夥伴。」
憑藉我在家庭與青少年發展方面的背景，我相信家庭應被視為教育中的重要夥伴。無論語言或文化背景，每一位家長都應在孩子的教育中擁有清晰、被尊重且有意義的參與。
目標：
• 在現有多語言支援的基礎上進一步加強，確保所有家庭都能清楚獲取資訊並充分參與。
• 創造更多機會，讓家長能與教育局進行有意義的互動與參與
Pillar 3: Success Beyond School | 學生全面成就
“Preparing students for life, not just for exams.”
Education must evolve to meet the challenges of the 21st century. I am committed to holistic education — ensuring students are prepared for university, the trades, and diverse career pathways, while developing the resilience needed to thrive in life.
Goals:
• Enhance mental health resources and strengthen support for diverse learning needs
• Build stronger pathways between secondary education and post-secondary or career opportunities
「為學生的人生做好準備，而不只是為了考試。」
教育必須與時俱進，以應對 21 世紀的挑戰。我重視全人教育——不僅幫助學生為升學、職業技能與不同人生方向做好準備，也培養他們面對未來所需的韌性與能力。
目標：
• 加強心理健康資源，並完善對不同學習需要的支援
• 強化中學與高等教育及職業發展之間的銜接
Pillar 4: Safe & Supportive Schools | 安全與關愛的校園環境
“Every student deserves to feel safe, supported, and valued at school.“
Every student deserves to learn in an environment where they feel safe, included, and supported. Schools should nurture not only academic success, but also emotional well-being and a strong sense of belonging.
Goals:
• Strengthen student well-being supports, including mental health services and inclusion initiatives
• Build on existing efforts to foster safe, respectful, and inclusive school environments for all students
“每位學生都應在校園中感到安心、被支持與被重視。”
每位學生都應在一個安心、被接納與被支持的環境中學習。學校不僅要追求學業成就，也應重視學生的情緒健康與歸屬感。
目標：
• 加強學生支援系統，包括心理健康服務與共融措施
• 在現有基礎上進一步推動安全、尊重與包容的校園環境
Pillar 5: Wise Stewardship | 明智的管理
“Fiscal responsibility through an Engineer’s lens.”
Managing hundreds of millions in public education funding requires clarity, discipline, and transparency. Drawing on my engineering background, I will ensure resources are directed where they matter most — supporting classrooms, strengthening student safety, and investing in essential infrastructure.
Goals:
• Maintain transparent budgeting with clear priorities, including school safety and long-term upgrades
• Use data-driven decision-making to improve efficiency without compromising essential student services
「以工程師的視角實踐財政責任。」
教育資源來之不易，涉及數以億計的公共資金。要管好這些資源，需要清晰、紀律與透明。我會以工程師的思維，確保每一分資源都用在最關鍵的地方——支持課堂教學、提升學生安全，並投資於可持續的校園發展。
目標：
• 推動透明且有清晰優先次序的財政管理，包括學校安全與長遠發展
• 以數據作為決策基礎，在不削弱學生重要支援的前提下提升效率
