I am an educator, parent, student, scientist, and ardent advocate for public schools, and I am honored to serve on the Ypsilanti Community Schools Board of Education.Our schools are communities, not commodities. We all have the opportunity and the responsibility to support equity and excellence for every child in our district. I have been immersed in this effort in multiple ways and I am excited to do even more as a member of the Board of Education.https://www.facebook.com/Maria.Goodrich.YCS.Trustee
