Meet the Team

I am writing today to share my full support for Amanda Gabriele, Lori Mansur, and Thais Moore as outstanding candidates for the North Haven Board of Education (BOE). Education has become increasingly more politicized in recent years; however, the North Haven BOE team is exceptional in its ability to work positively and collaboratively across party lines to make decisions in the best interests of North Haven students and families.

Amanda and Thais have a proven track record of listening, responding, and combining the expressed feedback of our community with their experience and expertise to support and create curriculum and policies that are in the best interests of all of our stakeholders. Amanda has demonstrated consistent, outstanding budgetary analysis, which benefits all of our taxpayers, whether or not they have students currently in school. This has been a voice for change and was instrumental in encouraging a new perspective on our school calendar in ensuring that students of all backgrounds would be able to participate in the observance of their high holidays without fear of missing important activities at school. Thais and Amanda have consistently demonstrated that they are able to uphold outstanding values and ideals while working in positive and productive collaboration with stakeholders of all political parties. Lori is a registered nurse and passionate about sharing her expertise with the health of the whole child with the BOE.

I encourage everyone to visit the Empowering North Haven website, www.empoweringnorthhaven.org, to learn more about this incredible team. I also encourage you to attend one of their upcoming events, which can be viewed at www.empoweringnorthhaven.org/events, and attend office hours, a fireside chat, or the Thursday, Aug. 10 BOE meeting. Meet the Empowering North Haven team, and experience the knowledge, experience, and positivity that make Amanda, Thais, and Lori exceptional educational leaders!
