New Board of Education Members
On April 2, 2019, Scott Jandrin and Jason Potts became
the newest elected members of the Howard Suamico Board of Education.
The decision to run for a seat on the Board of Education
reflects a commitment to public service and dedication to democracy. A choice
to serve in this manner is particularly significant because locally elected
officials are closer to the individuals they represent than other policymakers. Public schools carry out one of society’s
most important tasks - educating students to become productive, responsible,
civic-minded adults who prosper and serve.
As a school board member, one must balance the interests
and values of children, parents, teachers, administrators, taxpayers, business leaders,
and retirees among others in our school district. Performed with sincerity and thought, service
on a school board is a vital public service.
The mission of the Howard-Suamico School District Board
of Education is “to enact policies and allocate resources to develop all
students’ full academic potential and to promote their social and emotional
growth.” Therefore, it is desirable that
our board of education consists of members who:
❖ Are visionary and able to create alternate
futures
❖ Are conceptual thinkers
❖ Grasp the big picture
❖ Are connected to District ownership
❖ Demonstrate moral courage
❖ Can work within a group setting
❖ Accept and use authority
❖ Can allow others to lead
The HSSD Board of Education appreciates outgoing school
board members, Mark Ashley and Maria Lara’s dedicated service. Our school district is truly a better place
because of their investment of time and talents.
