Letter: Pick Tyler Steffey For School Committee

The following is a letter to the editor and does not necessarily reflect the opinion of Sudbury Patch.

I have been a resident of Sudbury for 14 years. I currently have two children at Curtis and three children at Haynes. I am writing in full support of Tyler Steffey for the Sudbury School Committee. I know Tyler as a coach, a parent, and an educator who will serve our school-age children well.

Tyler has been a Sudbury Youth Soccer Coach for my children. He is upbeat, constructive, and brings endless energy to the field. My kids enjoyed every practice and game under his leadership. They were especially thrilled when he joined in the team’s cartwheel contest. It is this balance between team building and skill-building that Tyler will bring to the school committee.

I have known the Steffey family since our days at the LEAP preschool. I know that Tyler brings his experience as an educator to every interaction with his own children and with mine. He has a calm, thoughtful, and rational presence that will help guide the school committee decision-making process.

Finally, I know Tyler’s experience as an educator is vast and diverse. He is a former Director of St. Stephen’s Youth Programs in Boston, a graduate of the School Leadership Program at Harvard Graduate School of Education, and is currently the assistant principal at a neighboring middle school. It is this practical classroom and leadership experience that Tyler will rely upon to inform his decisions on the committee. I recommend Tyler Steffey for Sudbury School Committee without reservation.
