I am excited to announce my candidacy for School Committee for the Westwood Public Schools. As a graduate of Westwood High School ('91) and now a mother of three children in the Westwood schools, I believe I bring the background, experience, and commitment to serve in the best interests of our children and families.  Specifically, I am focused on the following goals:

        ·   Use my legal and commercial real estate background to support the School District's long-term strategy and the elementary school capital plan;

        ·   Work with educators and families to explore primary and secondary outreach programming for disaffected and/or isolated students; and

        ·   Increase community engagement with the School Committee.

Now that we have kicked off the campaign, we would love volunteers! If you are interested in placing a sign on your lawn, hosting a "meet the candidate" coffee, or sending an email to your friends asking them to support me, please let me know via email or click the "Volunteer" button below.

We would also love donations to make this campaign a success! If you are interested in donating, please click on the Donate link below or send a check payable to "Committee to Elect Maya Plotkin" to: c/o Sara Michelmore, 558 Clapboardtree St., Westwood, MA 02090. Any amount would be very much appreciated!

We will be updating this website with event information shortly.  In the meantime, I'd love to hear from you! Please reach out to me at maya@mayaplotkin.com, or follow me on Twitter or Facebook. 

I hope that you will consider giving me your support, but regardless of whether you decide to support me, remember to vote in the Town Election on Tuesday, April 24. Your voice should be heard!
