It's a reality of the human condition that our previous life experiences shape us into the people we are today.
At the same time, when it comes to dealing with the school board's business, it's usually best if Trustees check all their unrelated baggage at the door and consider each item from this simple criteria: what action would be in the best interests of our students?
So, it doesn't really matter whether you're an active member of political party "X", or a strong adherent of religious faith "Y". And your colleagues probably won't be all that interested in your old "war stories" anyway.
You'll be most effective as a trustee if you leave all that baggage behind, treat your associates with respect, and focus on doing what's best for our students going forward.
