Ernest Minelli seeks return to committee to ‘represent best interests’ of school community

My name is Ernest Minelli, and I am seeking election to our Hull School Committee to represent the best interests of Hull’s students, families, educators, and taxpayers.

To accomplish these goals, we must work collaboratively to align our school district’s “2030 Strategic Plan” with key priorities for our community. Working in conjunction with our superintendent and with our school leadership team, we will promote family-friendly policies that encourage long-term sustainability and that increase school enrollment.

We also need to prioritize the retention and the promotion of our quality faculty and staff members so that we may maintain beneficial continuity throughout our educational programs in the Hull Public Schools.

By advocating for increased levels of engagement for our parents and families, we will support the growth and development of students from all socioeconomic backgrounds.

As we expand the “learning pathways” that serve as essential components of our school district’s strategic plan, we will promote thoughtful dialogue among our secondary-school students and their families regarding meaningful college and career opportunities.

My prior successful service on the Hull School Committee uniquely qualifies me to embrace the roles and responsibilities of this position from day one. I have served as a key member of subcommittees involving collective bargaining and contract negotiations, forging constructive dialogue with teachers, paraprofessionals, custodians, nurses, and school administrators.

Personally, I am a proud graduate of Hull High School, and I hold a bachelor’s degree in history from Harvard College, as well as a master’s degree in education from Stanford University.

My educational career has informed and shaped my ongoing dedication to seek the best practices that most effectively support our students’ development of their 21st-century learning skills.

I’m a creative problem-solver, and I have always prepared diligently for each school committee meeting so that I may ask the most effective, thoughtful questions for the benefit of our students’ learning experiences.

Please let me know if you would like to host a yard sign during this campaign. My e-mail address is ernestminelli@protonmail.com.

I enthusiastically ask for your vote for a position on our Hull School Committee on Monday, May 18. Thank you very much!
