Elizabeth Winkler will be an outstanding addition to the school board of the Savanna School District. I knew Ms Winkler when she worked with the International School of Stuttgart in Germany as Drama teacher, while also providing instruction in the German language and ESL departments of the school. Ms Winkler was committed to her work with students, always attempting to guide them in meeting their fullest potential, regardless of their personal gifts or challenges. She is able to recognize student needs and take action to address them.
I am also aware of Elizabeth’s extensive acting experience and know her to be a person of strong character, who strives for personal excellence onstage, as well as in life, accepting challenges with enthusiasm. She will serve the Savanna School District well.
