Editor,
Zionsville voters are fortunate to have the choice of Debbie Ungar as a candidate in this Fall’s election for the at-large position on the Zionsville School Board. I have spent a good part of my career working in education and related fields, and have rarely met a parent or community volunteer who has the passion and commitment to education I have seen in Debbie.
Debbie walks the walk, willingly rolling up her sleeves to tackle hard jobs if she believes that academic excellence will result. She listens well and makes decisions based on facts. Debbie has worked hard to learn the intricacies of school funding because she wants to ensure that our schools continue to provide excellent education for students while wisely using the funds entrusted to them by our community.
Debbie knows our community and the issues facing our schools very well, such knowledge is essential for an effective School Board member. She is not afraid to ask questions or challenge those in authority when necessary.
I encourage you to learn more about all of the candidates for School Board. Local elections often have much more impact on our day-to-day experiences than national elections and none more so than School Board. In doing so, I am certain you will find Debbie worthy of your vote.
