After speaking with Chris Shepley, via phone, I am in support of Chris Shepley running for our School Committee. As a graduate of Andover schools, myself, and my children, as well, I saw the decline in the Andover educational system when my children attended and from the new statistics, the schools have declined even more . Chris Shepley has a wonderful understanding of what needs to be done to insure that the Andover School System is overhauled to bring in the best teaches and educational material needed to put Andover School System back at the top of the educational levels by state and country. Chris Shepley has an advantage of being an Andover resident and graduate from Andover schools. With an inside view to all that is going on in the schools, I can find no one better to serve the Andover education system. Chris Shepley has my family’s votes. If people want to see Andover’s Educational school system become an advanced learning institute, like it used to be, please vote for Chris Shepley!
Sincerely,
Lynne and Richard Robidoux
Andover
