Thomas has stake in job

It isn’t often that we have the opportunity to elect such a gifted and talented mother of four young girls to our Spokane Public Schools board of directors. But we do this election in the person of Jennifer Muroya Thomas.

Jennifer is a wonderful, intelligent, compassionate, articulate and thoughtful person who comes to the table with strong credentials as a commissioner on the Spokane’s Human Rights Commission, director of development for The Jonah Project, civic leader and passionate mother. No candidate has more at stake personally than Jennifer does, as she is committed to making the best (and sometimes tough) decisions that will continue to grow Spokane Public Schools into one of the finest districts in which to educate our children.

Please help make Spokane schools stronger by voting for Jennifer Thomas for Position 5.
