With his three children enrolled as students in the district, serving as a School Director is personal for Kevin. While he cares deeply about the success of our public schools as a whole, he also wants to ensure that every single child has a positive and rewarding experience at PV. Kevin’s top priorities are providing students a safe and supportive environment in which to grow while emphasizing high academic standards and student achievement.

Kevin will ensure that Perkiomen Valley’s facilities are in excellent condition now and into the future as he believes that the physical environment is key to student and teacher success.

Kevin knows from first-hand experience that service is the greatest calling. He first served his country and is now ready to serve his local community as a School Director to keep PVSD moving forward. Kevin values communication and teamwork, and he will truly listen to all residents’ concerns, inputs, and ideas. The shared goal of doing what is best for both the students and the educators of the Perkiomen Valley School District will always be his North Star.
