Community Priorities
Student Empowerment:
Mikah envisions a district where students have a direct say in decision-making. He proposes the implementation of Participatory Budgeting, which would grant students a voice in shaping their educational environment by allocating resources to projects that matter most to them. Furthermore, he aims to establish Youth Board Liaisons and District Advisory Councils to ensure that the perspectives and needs of students are integrated into the policy-making process.
Community Engagement:
Mikah recognizes the importance of collaboration between schools and various community organizations. He plans to foster partnerships with service providers, health organizations, after-school programs, and youth centers to provide comprehensive support and holistic education for students. By embracing Positive Discipline approaches Mikah aims to cultivate a positive and inclusive school culture that prioritizes student well-being and growth. It is crucial that PUSD has safe and welcoming classrooms that accept every student, every day.
Education Enhancement:
Valuing and retaining educators is paramount to Mikah's vision for the district. He is determined to prioritize Educator Retention by implementing strategies that recognize and reward the invaluable contributions of teachers.

The Peoria Unified School District must continue to foster educational excellence by preserving and expanding our M.E.T professional academy, International Baccalaureate Program, CTE courses and much more throughout the district. Mikah envisions a Peoria that prepares tomorrow's leaders to better their community.
