Good evening. As a contributing member of the Genoa-Kingston Education Association (GKEA), I would like to extend an invite to stakeholders in the Genoa-Kingston school community. If you're interested in how the GKEA came to endorse our three school board candidates, feel free to send us an email with your inquiry ([email protected]). Keep in mind that there is nothing more important to the GKEA than serving these wonderful students as a cog in their future successful and fulfilling lives. For those of you unaware, the GKEA has endorsed the following three candidates for our school board:

Julie Ratliff
Jake Wesner
Mary Hintzsche

Please note that we appreciate all 5 candidates for their volunteerism in running for a position to help lead and direct our amazing school district. All 5 candidates should be applauded for their altruism and I don't think I speak alone when I say THANK YOU to all five candidates as well as to everyone who comes out to vote for the school board elections.

Please work to keep any comments positive as we feel each of the five candidates have phenomenal qualities and huge hearts to run for a volunteer yet impactful position.

Thank you. 😊
