I recently had the opportunity to listen to the first school board candidate forum. I wanted to share my thoughts since I’m often asked who I support.
My support is going to Kelley Casper, Alex Argo and Tommy Montoya. I weigh a persons demonstrated connection and long term vested interest in Lakota heavily in who I support. We’ve seen the disruption that happens when a persons interest is primarily political agendas.
Kelley Casper has demonstrated her commitment through her longstanding volunteer involvement with both Lakota and the community. She is often at local gatherings both giving back, and hearing from members of our community. She’s demonstrated her ability to leverage her background in education and industry to make balanced decisions that benefit all students. In a board that will have two new board members, she can help provide stability and a proven track record.
Alex Argo and his wife are Lakota alumni. Their children currently attend Lakota. Alex built his business here with fellow grads. He has chosen to dig in and educate himself on school funding and other issues facing the district. This will help shorten his learning curve and allow Lakota to continue making progress.
Tommy Montoya is also a Lakota parent with four kids, giving him a long term vested interest in Lakota’s excellence. His work experience as a Human Resource executive at P&G will provide a valuable lens for decision making. He’s also served on governors committees in other states providing a breadth of perspective.
Please don’t take my opinion over becoming educated yourself. Attend the Lakota East Spark debate Oct 13 at 6:30 at the Lakota East freshman building. Visit their websites. Watch the last debate. Whatever you do, get out and vote Nov 4!

I do not live in the Lakota System, but if I did I would vote for all three of these!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us! I know many, many people value your opinion!
Thanks for sharing! I value your opinion!
Julie, I truly appreciate your leadership and the impact you’ve made in our community. Your support at events like School Board School has always meant a lot, and it’s clear we share a deep commitment to education for all. With more than 20 years of service to this district — as a parent, business owner, and former Director of Marketing for the second largest school district in Ohio — I’ve worked to build bridges that bring people together and create opportunities for every child to thrive. My candidacy isn’t about tokenism or titles; it’s about connection and collaboration. From day one, I am prepared to lead — because as you and I both know, it takes real leaders to do this work and to keep education for all at the heart of every decision. #FocusedOnLakotasFuture #FutureReadyLakota #LeadershipThatBuildsBridges
Thank you so much for this Julie! ❤️
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for the summary of what they are like 😊
You should all listen for yourselves and decide. We have the right to vote, but we should be educated and vote for who best represents our core values.
Great take away, Julie!! Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you!! I value your opinions and perspectives a great deal!
At Lakota, we’re so grateful for community partners who stand along side us and support our students. If you have an opportunity to support them financially so they can continue this work, we’d be so appreciative. I’ve attached the link from the Edge Teen Center below.
