Nathan Alley for Indian Hill Board of Education

Hello!

My name is Nathan, and I am a candidate for the Indian Hill Exempted Village School District Board of Education.

In this school district, we expect excellence. We lead the way.

I want to help build on that promise.

I am a proud parent of two children in the district, and a member of the Thirteen Year Club (IHHS Class of '97). My parents were teachers, and I am involved in higher education as an Adjunct Assistant Professor at the University of Cincinnati. In my day job, I use my background as an attorney to protect public health and the environment, and to promote good public policy.

I love our Indian Hill schools, and I will work every day to make them even better for our students, families, staff and community members.

I will work to:

• Ensure the physical safety and mental well-being of students and staff;

• Enable every student to reach their potential;

• Engage with the community;

• Enhance the environmental sustainability of district facilities and operations;

• Promote a culture of respect and inclusivity;

• Prepare our students for careers both at home and abroad;

• Practice financial responsibility; and

• Plant the seeds for future generations of success.

I will be a Board member for everyone, and I will listen to you. I would be honored to have your support when you vote this fall.

Sincerely,

Nathan Alley
