Meet Pam
Iʼm Pam Little and I want to be your next District 12, State Board of Education representative. As a mother of 2 children educated in public schools, a former college instructor, retired educational publishing executive and business owner I have experienced education from many different facets. I believe in public education. Texas public schools are responsible for educating students to be responsible, patriotic, and productive citizens. Thus creating taxpayers not tax abusers. We need to teach our children to learn and think– not just to test.
My conservative values, experience, honesty and common sense are needed on the Texas State Board of Education. I respectfully ask for your vote to serve the students, parents, educators and businesses of District 12.
