From Heidi to the Wayzata Public Schools Community:
“Hi WPS Students, Families, and Voters – I can’t start without talking about the horrific gun violence at Annunciation School in Minneapolis. I’m heartbroken and still extraordinarily raw with emotion – as are many of you. May we all live to remember and honor the children lost. I’m holding all with injuries – physical and emotional – in my thoughts and hope for their full and swift recoveries. I won’t stop talking about gun violence as the epidemic that it is. As my heart continues to be with Annunciation, I have to continue to move my feet towards impacting a positive future.
Happy start to the 2025-2026 school year! I hope that your families are off to a strong start. This fall will be busy for me and my family … I couldn’t be happier to announce that I’m running for RE-ELECTION to the WPS School Board!
Public education, and the systems that support it, are a long term investment. I AM IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL. I leaned heavily into this role during my first term, learned the invaluable role that governance plays, developed strong relationships across our district and state, learned an incredible amount about our local needs/opportunities/barriers, and understand the intricacies of how WPS intersects with our City, State, and Federal systems to make Public Education happen. This job demands commitment, strong competence, and deep collaboration – all done in community. While I’ve invested more than I can convey, I also know that you have invested in me. I’ll never take that for granted.
I continue to be a proud WPS graduate who personally knows the value of the stellar education that WPS has to offer. I also see and experience the deep challenges in our school system, because I’m still the mom down the road with three kids in our schools. I understand the struggles and joys of balancing work, caring for kids, parents and family – all in the same hour! I’ve sat at table after table advocating for our community’s values. I’m still just a phone call away. When the going gets tough, I stay in it – and believe me, it has. I LOVE this work and I’m good at it.
Let’s maintain our standing and reputation for all the incredible alumni and each graduating class to come. And better yet – lets make sure that each and every student enjoys those benefits.
– Heidi”
