Electoral politics
March 2009 Mimi Carter was "the clear winner in tonight’s forum for Alexandria school board candidates from District A".
Sponsored by Tenants and Workers United, candidates shared their plans for Alexandria schools and how they would address the achievement gap for Latino and African American students.
Mimi spoke about the benefits of expanding early childhood education in the city, the need to hire more bilingual front office staff and offer more translation services, and her plans to get parents more involved with their children’s education.
“Nearly 70% of our student body is Hispanic or African American,” Mimi said, “and the challenges they face affect us all. I appreciate the work Tenants and Workers have done to elevate these important issues and the leadership of Vicky Menjivar, Jon Liss, Ruth Dinzey, Evelin Urrutia and the rest of Tenants and Workers team.”[1]
