  • John and Maria Castillo - Parents of STEM high school hero Kendrick Castillo that defended his classmates against the shooters and lost his life.

    “We John and Maria Castillo, are honored to know and endorse Anthony Hartsook for Colorado house District 44 .

    Maria and I are the parents of Kendrick Ray Castillo, the hero who lost his life on May 7, 2019 when 2 gunmen entered classroom 107 at the Stem School in Highlands Ranch Colorado, intent on killing everyone in the room and school Kendrick rushed one of the shooters stopping him from killing students and staff but not before Kendrick was fatally shot.

    Maria and I have had very powerful and encouraging conversations with Anthony about School and Community Safety, Maria and I feel that Anthony's experiences around the World in seeing how education and safety has been compromised in other places, which makes Anthony the ideal candidate to help protect and serve our communities right here in Colorado, Anthony brings the power, passion and the desire to serve families and the citizens of Colorado, while bringing a new perspective, and Anthony's sensible approach to reducing taxes, fees and regulations, while supporting Law Enforcement for Safe Community and Schools, is why we are endorsing Anthony Hartsook for Colorado House District 44.”
