mailmanI urge you to cast your vote for Linda Pasto to be a member of the Lansing Board of Education on Election Day, May 21st. I have known Linda for 30 years. She has put the needs of students first during her many years of service to the Lansing School community. Four of her children attended and graduated from Lansing High School...one child is still a student.

Throughout her professional career as a nursing instructor at TC3 (Professor Emeritus of Nursing and Health), Linda has volunteered on many levels within the Lansing School community. She served on the Middle School, High School, and District Site Based Decision Making Teams, is a lifetime member of the PTSO serving as president and secretary, and is a member of the Lansing Theater and Performing Arts Booster Club. Linda has worked on many events including fundraising, Teacher Appreciation week, school plays, the Thanksgiving Feast, and at sports concession stands.

Linda started the Kevin Snyder Memorial Bobcat Campership. She wrote two successful grants that will send 45 students to camp this coming summer of 2019. She is one of the founders of the Bobcat Lunchbox Program which will feed 60 – 70 students this summer. Linda helped obtain the grant for that program as well.

Linda was also President of the Hospicare Board of Directors and a member of the Finance committee of that organization. Her responsibilities consisted of balancing the budget and evaluating the Hospicare Executive Director.

Linda Pasto has vast experience working on committees, initiating programs, and handling financial services for the Lansing schools. Such a well rounded background makes her the best candidate for the Lansing Board of Education. Please give her your vote on May 21st.

Sincerely,

Marc A. Catone
