“I’m running for school board because I want to bring a nonpartisan, collaborative approach to give back to the schools and community that shaped who I am today,” Perry said. “As both a district graduate and parent, I’ve experienced our schools from both perspectives. I believe that our community is ready for steady, balanced leadership. Too often, political division distracts from the work that matters most. I will listen carefully to the needs of our community, focus on practical solutions, and make decisions based on what’s best for students, families, and educators.”

Perry grew up in Fishers’ Conner Knoll neighborhood where he attended New Britton Elementary and graduated from Hamilton Southeastern High School in 2007. In 2011, he graduated from Purdue University where he met his wife, Stephanie, who also graduated from Hamilton Southeastern High School. The couple are now raising their family in Stephanie’s childhood home in West Fishers. Their children, Parker and Caroline, are students at Harrison Parkway Elementary where they are entering third and first grade this fall.

Perry serves as Commercial Underwriting Manager for Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance, where he leads a team of 15 underwriters and oversees commercial property and casualty underwriting for the state of Indiana.

Elections for the Hamilton Southeastern Schools Board of Trustees will be held on Nov. 3, 2026. Visit PerryforHSE.com to donate, volunteer, and learn more about Josh Perry’s campaign for District 2.
