My name is Aleeza Hagerty. I am writing to request your vote to keep my seat on the Hull School Committee, for which I was appointed in September 2025.

With a professional foundation in education, extensive nonprofit and community leadership experience, and ongoing work managing a real estate portfolio, I bring a unique blend of skills well-suited to supporting the committee’s oversight responsibilities and advancing the success of our schools.

As a licensed educator and former classroom teacher, I have first-hand understanding of the opportunities and challenges within our school system. My work ranged from guiding grade-level teams and leading social studies curriculum to designing enrichment programs under the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act and directing the summer school program. These experiences taught me the importance of addressing both academic and non-academic barriers to student achievement.

Beyond the classroom, I have been deeply engaged in community organizations that strengthen our schools and support people of all ages. Through leadership roles in the Hull PTO, Girl Scouts, youth sports, and veterans support initiatives, I have gained experience in organizing large-scale events, building consensus across stakeholders, and ensuring programs are both inclusive and effective. Additionally, I am a member of the Hull Wellness Council and Friends of Hull Scouting. This nonprofit and volunteer work requires strategic planning, financial stewardship, and the ability to mobilize resources to meet community needs.

In addition, I am the sole property manager of my family’s real estate business, requiring proficiency in budgeting, contract oversight, and long-term planning. This experience, combined with my familiarity in navigating policy and regulations, positions me well to evaluate district budgets, policies, and operational decisions effectively.

As a member of the school committee, I bridge the perspectives of educators, families, and the broader community. To date, I am one of the very few committee members who have met individually with the Hull Teachers Association co-presidents to discuss common goals and ambitions. I’ve been actively advocating for continued curriculum and materials alignment, responsible resource allocation, relationship-building among stakeholders, and open communication with educational leaders to foster productive working relationships within our schools. My professional and personal experiences have given me perspective, and I am eager to contribute to ensure our schools remain places of opportunity, equity, and excellence for all students.

Thank you for your consideration. I welcome the opportunity to bring my background, dedication, and collaborative spirit to the Hull School Committee. If you’d like to reach out, my email is ahagerty@hullpublicschools.us.

Please vote Aleeza Hagerty for Hull School Committee on May 18.
