Good morning,
Some of you may know me, some of you might not. I'm Laura Roslin and I thought I should do my best to at least get to know many of you as possible. Here, I work as the Education Lead for the Potts Tower Youth Centre, working closing with Anne Blythe and Mary Margaret as well as all the other staff members. I believe in educating everyone to their best and know that everyone learns differently and therefore different learning methods need to be embraced and adapted for each and every child as not one child - or person - is the same as another.
Back home, I started out as a Kindergarten teacher on the planet Caprica, one of the twelve colonies before a friend convinced me to join the campaign for Richard Adar who was running for Mayor of Caprica. From there, I have worked in politics, going on to become the Secretary of Education for the Twelve Colonies which involved standardising the education across all the planets while adapting them to each planet as each of them are different. Caprica for example is very much the based around the Arts as well as Politics while Taurus for example is very much a farming planet. I worked as Secretary for a number of years, undertaking tasks such as helping end a Teachers Strike in a way that was beneficial not only for them but for the Government as well as well as implementing computers in all classrooms and networking many of the older ships of the Colonies Fleet.
After the destruction of the Colonies by the Cylons, which I managed to shake due to an off world mission to decommission the Battlestar Galactica, I become the President of the Twelve Colonies and was in charge of looking after the well being of the 50,000 survivors of the attack in search of the fabled 13th colony, Earth.
I did all of that while battling terminal breast cancer, which due to a miracle has now gone into remission.
I believe in working together for the better treatment and well being of everyone no matter who they are, where they are from or their place in the world. Everyone is unique and everyone has the opportunity to work with one another for the betterment of all of us.
Why am I telling you all of this? Well, I have decided to run for the Potts Tower Council. I have put my name down for President but I am willing to help in anyway that is needed. I just want the best for all of us.
PTYC Staff MembersHas anyone seen Mary Margaret or Anne? I'd like to talk to them about something but I can't get a hold of them.
ReginaAre you thinking of running? I think you would be good. You certainly have experience in running a town so this can't be that different.
