School board candidates Simon, Webb reveal sharp differences By RICHARD WALKER

POULSBO — At first glance, the campaign for North Kitsap School Board District 5 seems cordial. But after meeting with the North Kitsap Herald Community Advisory Board on Sept. 28, an email exchange between candidates Deborah Simon and Bill Webb revealed sharp differences between the two. In the exchange, Webb writes that Simon lacks commitment to make “the system work” because she enrolled her two young daughters outside the district; Simon counters that the district is unable to accommodate all children with special needs and that’s why she’s running. “I wouldn’t characterize our campaigns as contentious, nor would I characterize them as friendly,” Simon wrote in the first email. “My impression from side comments Mr. Webb has made is that he never saw me as an opponent who had a possibility of winning. Only recently … has he made his opinions on issues public, and many people believed I was running against [District 4 candidate] Glen Robbins because of Mr. Webb’s silence.
