Geneva Education Association Announces Recommendations for School Board

 

The Geneva Education Association (GEA) is proud to recommend Robert “Larry” Cabeen, Katherine Frye, and Alicia Saxton for Geneva School Board in the upcoming April 2nd Election.

​

The GEA would like to thank all the candidates who participated in our interviews.  

 

The GEA believes these three individuals provide a voice that will work to strengthen education in Geneva 304, while being mindful of fiscal responsibility. These candidates best articulated an understanding of the current climate in Geneva regarding the needs of its students and schools. They also demonstrated a commitment to working to repair collaboration and communication in the district. The GEA supports Cabeen, Frye, and Saxton for the three open seats in this election cycle.
