Sam Hughes for Elmbrook

Hello friends,

I am sad to report that we did not get the results we hoped for in this election.

Our team worked harder than ever in this election to help secure the future of Elmbrook schools for the students in this community.

I want to thank all the supporters over these past three years and pray that this new team will lead Elmbrook schools to future success for all the families in this community. They depend on these candidates to make good, sound decisions.

As I finish these next few weeks in my role, I will give it 100% and do what I can to help the board transition to Elizabeth. I called and congratulated her in this victory a few hours ago.

I am extremely honored to have served these last three years in this role. God has taught me so much and I will be forever grateful. The Administrators, teachers and staff I have met are such amazing people and care so much for the children in the schools.

I will continue to fight for these students, but the fight will look different. God has different plans for me.

Today is the day!

Go vote!

Polls close at 8pm!!

It is a beautiful day to win!!

Hello Friends!! Come and visit me tonight!

Hello friends of Elmbrook.
Tuesday's board meeting was a demonstration of how I fight for your tax dollars and lead the fight for transparency with our community.

The district is sending out a survey about the facilities referendum — and it gives the impression this will only cost taxpayers $85 million. The real burden on local taxpayers? Closer to $154 million.

Let that sink in.

I pushed for the survey to give you the full picture. The vote was 5 to 2. Five board members voted against being fully transparent with you.

My opponent in this race went out of her way to speak up and voice support in favor of this misleading survey. That tells you something about how she'll vote in office.

This is how I fight for you. Sometimes I'm nearly a lone voice, but I will never stop pursuing truth and transparency with your tax dollars.

Watch the full board discussion and see for yourself — link's in the comments.

Vote early now through April 3rd, or on Election Day, April 7th. SamForElmbrook.com.
