School Board Nominating Committee

Christine E McDonald: I grew up in a neighboring suburb, which has given me a strong connection to and appreciation for this community. Now, as a parent with a child entering the public school system this fall, I’m excited to engage in a new way and contribute more directly. Community involvement has always been an important part of my life, whether through volunteering, local leadership roles, or supporting organizations that make a meaningful impact. I value building strong, connected communities and believe in showing up, contributing, and supporting others. I look forward to continuing that commitment as my family becomes more integrated locally.
