Youngdahl has done much for district

As an interested observer, first as a parent and now as a grandparent, I would like to add my endorsement for Steve Youngdahl and what has been able to accomplish in his time on the school board.

Using the track record of standardized testing over the last five years and seeing how much improvement the Sandpoint school system has made is very gratifying, but maybe even more important is hearing the individual success stories of numerous students across a broad ability and range and seeing Sandpoint becoming a model for what a public school system can and should be for all students.
