Dear Editor:

As early voting has begun and people are now going to the polls to cast their votes, I would like to publicly endorse three Noblesville School Board Candidates: Christi Crosser, Stephanie Lambert, and Bret Richardson.

I have had the opportunity and privilege to work alongside all three of these individuals while serving on the Board of Noblesville Schools Education Foundation (NSEF) with them. I have had a front-row seat to witness their passion, dedication, and their commitment to making Noblesville Schools the best! They are all active participants who roll up their sleeves and get things done, they truly love our school community, and through their combined efforts have made Noblesville Schools a district that others envy.

I don’t want to parrot what you can research on your own (which I highly recommend you do), instead I would like to speak of their integrity and character.

Christi, Stephanie, and Bret all live in Noblesville and are part of the fabric that makes this community stand out among the others. They truly live their mission to make our schools shine, and they work endlessly to create an environment that our students and teachers thrive in. They fight for our kids and make sure that we have the highest standards within our school community. It is not always an easy job but they all stand strong in their dedication.

We are so lucky to have these three who will put themselves out there in not always the kindest of circumstances because they believe in the process, they believe in education, and have a sound vision for the future. We need more people like them … people who give of their time and talent, sacrifice time with their families, and tirelessly advocate for fiscal responsibility, diversity, empathy, equity, and respect within our district.

I am also very passionate about our schools. My daughter graduated from Noblesville in 2022. Her readiness that our schools provided has laid a foundation that I can never repay. We have something very special here and anyone who experiences our schools will tell you … it is not the norm!

So, I would never endorse anyone I feel would not uphold the standards that we are used to and pride ourselves on! Christi, Stephanie, and Bret are the only choice to continue the caliber of excellency that Noblesville School District is known for. That is why I am proudly voting for Crosser, Lambert, and Richardson.
