We have stood together, raised our voices, asked hard questions, and made sure we could not be ignored. The community is more engaged, and individuals who care deeply about our children are stepping up to run for the school board, ready to make a difference.

This year, we encourage you to learn more about the parent candidates running for school board - Matthew Bruhn, Jonathon Appleton, and Emily DuCharme. These candidates are volunteering their time and energy because they care about the health and future of our district. They are stepping up not for recognition, but out of a deep commitment to our students and schools. Most importantly, please vote. In two years, the remaining three board seats will be up for election as well.

According to the Peninsula School District website, the school board is responsible for:

Policy Development: Creating and implementing policies that uphold high educational standards and equity.

Budget Oversight: Ensuring financial resources are used wisely to support student learning and well-being.

Superintendent Supervision: Overseeing and collaborating with the Superintendent to achieve district goals.

Curriculum and Instruction: Approving curricula that meet the needs of all students and prepare them for success.

Community Engagement: Involving parents, students, educators, and community members to foster a strong, inclusive school community.

Thank you for walking this journey with us. Your voice and your vote matter. Let’s keep moving forward together.

With gratitude,
Minter Creek PTA
