Oiler Nation-
November 15, 2021 marks “School Board Member Day” and District #14 would like to extend a sincere thank you this week to Board President Jennifer Murray, Board Vice President Mark St. Peters, Board Secretary Melissa Bartels, Board Member Leroy Duncan, Board Member Stacy Tierney, Board Member Missy Gerner, and Board Member Mike Redman for their commitment and their contributions to our District, our Students, our Faculty and Staff along with the Oiler Community.
These seven individuals spend countless hours advocating for our EAWR Students, Families, Facility and Staff making financial decisions and overseeing the operations of the District. Moreover, they work to navigate a variety of complex, challenging and always changing educational and social issues. Their efforts are crucial to building a thriving, equitable system of public education for all students.
Each member contributes her or his own strengths to the District, and these different contributions and perspectives make them a formidable group. Their different perspectives work to strengthen their capacity as a Board. They are able to navigate their differences, pick up on each others’ perspectives, and ultimately arrive at the best possible outcome for OUR students and school district.
Thank you to all the members for their public service, and if you see one of them around town, we encourage you to say thanks, too. Our District is without a doubt better because we have them on OUR team!
Sincerely,
Rob Miller, Superintendent
