Sharon is an attorney, an educational advocate and the mom of two kids in AAPS - one at Pioneer and one at Slauson. She fell in love with Ann Arbor when she attended law school here in the early 2000s and after years living in New York and Chicago, finally made it back in 2019 just before COVID. She remains concerned about the District focusing on the wrong priorities and started FoE2 as a way to bring evidence-based thinking that could improve academic outcomes and governance in the District.

Margaret graduated from The University of Wisconsin Madison School of Law in 1995 and then moved to Chicago where she lived most of her adult life. She and her family moved to Ann Arbor in 2015 when her daughter was in elementary dysfunction in the district. FoEA2 exists because there are a lot of parents, like her, who want this district to do a better job focusing on educating children and we are working towards that end by keeping the community better informed and more aware of what is going on in our school district.
