Kurt Thigpen

Kurt is running for office to become a voice for all students.

Our students deserve a quality education. That begins with feeling safe, included, and accepted so that they can be empowered to be successful in their studies without worrying about things like getting to school safely, being bullied, or having access to equitable resources.

Kurt’s platform includes (1) expanding access to mental health to reduce suicide attempts among teens, (2) increasing equity and inclusion so that resources are available to all students regardless of their zip code, gender, race, religion or sexual orientation, and (3) rebuilding trust and transparency between the school board and the community.
