Carmel Clay School Board - District 1

Run for School Board – Make a Difference in Your Community!

Thinking about running for school board? Now’s the time! School board members play a critical role in shaping the future of our public schools—making decisions about curriculum, school funding, student support, and so much more.

Because school board races are newly partisan in Indiana, values matter more than ever. Voters are looking for leaders who support public education, respect educators, and put students first. Whether you’re a parent, educator, advocate, or concerned community member, your voice belongs at the table.

Why Run?

• Advocate for strong, equitable public education

• Support teachers and staff

• Ensure schools are safe, inclusive, and fully funded

• Bring transparency and community-centered leadership to decision-making

No political experience required—just passion and commitment. Want to learn more about how to get started or what it takes to run there are many excellent local organizations that can help guide your way. If we can help point you in the right direction, please let us know.
