I’m a 7th-grader at LMS. I believe the school committee is about kids, but how many take time to listen to us?

I know four who take time to listen. Mr. Bernier, Ward 7 was my principal and I know he loves kids.

Larry Lachance, Ward 2, took the time to get to know me. I hope he gets re-elected.

Leah Poulin, at-large. I know she’s a great lady. She has a daughter at McMahon, and she listens to us kids.

Kay Theberge, Ward 1. Her son was my 5th-grade buddy when I was in first grade, and she always does Career Day events and really cares about kids.

If any voters care what us kids think, please vote for Theberge in Ward 1, Lachance in Ward 2 or Bernier in Ward 7, and Poulin at-large. I’m too young to vote. I am counting on you to protect my future.

Ray Goulet, Lewiston
