Tumwater schools prepared me as a life-long learner and public servant. I am the proud daughter of a former Tumwater Schools bus driver, a Tumwater graduate, former classroom aide and volunteer, parent of a 2021 graduate, and a current school board member.
During my service, I’ve learned the best solutions are found locally; and should be influenced by the voices of students, families, staff, and the community. By coming together, we have tackled unimaginable challenges the pandemic has presented. I have been humbled by the resilience and dedication of our teachers, families, staff and administrators. I am honored to serve Tumwater’s educators, families, and students as a listener, problem-solver, and connector.
With your vote, I hope to continue. Let’s keep up the good work – together!
Melissa for Tumwater Schools!
