Kelly used to work as a teachers associate in the Russell School and wanted students from Russell to have Russell representation. She wants kids to be able to come to her with their problems and she will listen to them. "If I can do something to make things better for kids, then I will feel like I accomplished what I am setting out to do," Kelly said. The election is on Tuesday, September 13.
