John Stadvec III – Candidate for Abington School Director

Hello, My name is John Stadvec. I have lived in Ardsley Pennsylvania for seven years. I moved here after serving 14 years in The US Navy.  I am a concerned parent and taxpayer.

I have two daughters who attend Copper Beech Elementary School 

My oldest daughter went from being a five year honor roll student to barely passing her classes, while my kindergartener gets lost staring at a computer for seven hours a day five days a week. 

Throughout my 14 year career, I served in an active warzone twice as well as having lived and traveled in both friendly and hostile environments. 

I will bring real world experience and first hand knowledge of conflict resolution to the position of School Board as I will:

  • put students before politics
  • work for the PARENTS and TAXPAYERS of Ardsley Pennsylvania
  • work to not raise school taxes
  • support an uninterrupted in person Five Day School Week
  • seek solutions to the conundrum of a SIX YEAR Mandarin Chinese course and ELIMINATE the LOTTERY SYSTEM that is in place for this course. I will fight for any student who wishes to attend this class. I wish to add American Sign Language to the secondary language course offerings.

I hope to be your voice on the School Board.
