1. Robert E. Fox Clovis Unified School District Governing Board Candidate Questionnaire Why do you want to be a member of the Governing Board of the Clovis Unified School District? I want to be a member of the Governing Board of the Clovis Uni?ed School District in order to demonstrate my deep appreciation of how the lives of our five children were impacted by the quality of the education they received. Our family moved to Clovis in 1980 when Rachel, our oldest child, entered Kindergarten. We moved in part because we knew the value that education plays in the achievement of success and were convinced that the Clovis Unified School District would provide them with quality educations. Our children were given the tools required to achieve whatever they chose to undertake. Therefore, I would like to lend my support as a Governing Board member to ensure that all children in our community now and in the future will be afforded the same excellent opportunities our children received. Do you have children who previously attended or are currently attending schools within Clovis Unified School District? Yes. All ?ve of our children attended schools within the Clovis Unified School District. Our oldest daughter, Rachel, graduated from Clovis High School and taught at Buchanan High School, Clovis East High School, and CART after completing her student teaching requirements at Buchanan High School. Lindsay was in the first class to graduate from Buchanan High School and Benjamin followed her there. Both were outstanding athletes as exemplified by them receiving the coveted Bear Award. Additionally, Benjamin placed second at both the State and National Wrestling competitions as a heavyweight. Jonathon graduated from Clovis High School and Robert graduated from Gateway High School. Moreover, five of our seven grandchildren attend Clovis Unified Schools. The other two will attend when they are old enough.
