Introduction

Hi, my name is Tracy Weslee Simmons. My husband Steve and I have been married for 11 years and have lived in Lee's Summit the entire time. We have 2 daughters, Taylor is 7 years old and Sierra is 5 years old.

I work for Wander World Travel as a travel consultant and have been with them for 12 years. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and traveling.I am a member of Families Supporting Families, National Autism Society of America, Epilepsy Foundation, Highland Park Elementary PTA, Aldersgate Methodist Church in Lee's Summit, KC Autism Society, and the National Vaccine Information Center.
I serve on the Kansas City Regional Advisory Panel for Missouri Parents Act. I have done consulting work for the Center for Innovations in Special Education for Show Me Rainbows Early Childhood Special Educcation Training. I recently attended the Families Experiences Enhance Learning training session from the Center for Innovations in Special Education. I have done numerous speaking engagements in an effort to provide information to students and teachers in the field of special education. I have attended both National and State Parent to Parent conferences and I am devoted to helping families. I am eager to be more involved in the school district and greatly appreciate your vote on April 4th.I hope that we can work together as a team. We will need to discuss and make good decisions that are in the best interest of the students and employees in the district.

I intend to be informed on issues, be objective, open minded, a good listener and use good reasoning when making decisions.
