Dear voters of Board of Education District 6,
I would like to offer my endorsement of Stuart Pippin in the runoff election for
Monroe County Board of Education District 6. I am a longtime resident of Monroe
County and believe Stuart embodies the traits and qualifications needed to be an
effective board member. I have known Stuart through his work in our community
and I am enthusiastically supporting him for the following reasons:
-He is a trusted individual who has a genuine interest in serving our community.
-He has been a banker for 17 years and can help allocate financial resources where they are needed.
-He has a vested interest in the school system because he currently has a child in school.
-He has the maturity and experience to represent the interests of the entire school system.
-He will be available and accessible to all constituents of the school system.
I urge you to consider voting for Stuart during early voting, which is going on now until
Friday, July 22 or on Election Day, Tuesday, July 26. You can learn more about Stuart by
visiting his Facebook page at Stuart Pippin for School Board. Thank you for your strong
consideration of Stuart Pippin for Monroe County Board of Education District 6.
