I am pleased to offer my wholehearted endorsement of Kendra Wilson Muenter for the Newport School Committee. I have been consistently impressed with Kendra’s unwavering commitment to Newport’s students, families, and educators. She is a dedicated advocate for equitable school funding, and her deep knowledge of the community and our schools informs her actions in every way. When confronted with a problem, Kendra takes the time to educate herself thoroughly on relevant educational practices and research, showing her dedication to making well-informed decisions.
Kendra welcomes partnerships with nonprofits connected to our schools and actively collaborates with them, showing up and working side-by-side to achieve meaningful results. As an educator with 45 years of experience and a background as a district administrator, I can attest that Kendra exemplifies the quality, commitment, and passion that every school committee should strive for.
Kendra is a tireless worker, a strategic thinker, and a calm, thoughtful listener, even under pressure. I was honored to vote for Kendra Wilson Muenter last Wednesday, and I am confident in her ability to bring Newport’s schools into the future.
Sincerely,
Gene Thompson-Grove, Newport
