Students in Conversation with School Board Candidates Student voices. Candidate perspectives. One community conversation.

Meet the candidates seeking to serve our local schools and hear directly from the students whose educational experiences will be shaped by School Board decisions.

Each candidate will briefly introduce themselves, share why they are running, and discuss what they hope to bring to the School Board.

Featured School Board Trustee Candidates

Tara Marino • Emily Gallup • Mike Dent • Keith Allen • Olivia Pritchett • Jeff Dellis

Hear Directly from Students

Ten students from the schools represented in these races will share what matters most to them about their school experience.  Students will speak candidly about the opportunities, programs, support, safety, sense of belonging, learning environments, and resources that help them learn, grow, and succeed.

Come hear from the candidates—and, most importantly, listen to the students they hope to serve.

The DWNC business meeting will follow the School Board Trustee Candidate Student Conversation.
