“As a PTA member at Eliot elementary
and as the President of the TPS Zarrow School
Foundation, I understand what it takes to get
things done in our schools. That is what this
election is about and it is time to bring a business
perspective to the TPS board.
“I care deeply about education and the future
of our City and that is why I am running. As a
parent with two children in Tulsa Public Schools
(including District 5) and a third in pre-school,
I am committed to public education and understand
that strong public schools are critical to Tulsa’s
future success and growth.”

Dear Tulsa District 5 Voters:
With just a few days before the February 5th election, I respectfully
ask for your vote for Tulsa Public School Board, District
5.
I have been a candidate for nine weeks and have had wonderful
opportunities to meet parents, students, teachers, principals
and voters who care deeply about Tulsa’s schools and their
future. It's been fun and informative and I hope I have earned
your vote along the way. I have taken the time to:
• visit and tour all the great schools in District 5;
• meet with each Principal to hear their challenges first
hand; and
• speak at all the District 5 PTA meetings, the Tulsa Teachers
Classroom Association’s Delegate and the Tulsa Council of
PTAs meetings.
At this point in the campaign, we have finished debating at
the candidate forum, exchanged ideas at school PTA meetings,
had conversations with parents, answered questions by e-mail
and been interviewed at the Tulsa World editorial board.
I've listened and tried to answer voters' questions candidly
and to the point.
Voters want this election to be about our kids and on making
sure we keep the focus on excellence in ALL of our schools.
Parents and voters want us to get the job done.
Now it's up to you to elect an effective new School Board
member that has children in Tulsa Public Schools (and in District
5) as well as someone who listens, works hard and has business
experience combined with practical problem solving skills.
This election is about strong public schools that ensure a
strong City of Tulsa. I would appreciate your vote on Tuesday,
February 5th. Thank you!
Sincerely,
Brian Hunt
P.S. There's nothing more effective than a short message from
a friend, family member or co-worker. If you're willing, please
forward a brief email to your friends and neighbors with a
link to my webpage, www.Hunt4Schools.com -- to help others
learn more about why I'm running and remind them to vote on
Tuesday, February 5th.
Brian Hunt is a candidate for Tulsa School Board District 5.
Brian, a graduate of Tulsa Edison High School and his wife Katy,
a Tulsa Memorial High School graduate, have a child at Eliot
Elementary and one at Zarrow International Elementary. “I feel
it is my responsibility to provide proven leadership to what
I think is the most important board in the City.” The Tulsa
native credits his experience in Tulsa schools as the foundation
for his success at the University of Oklahoma where he received
his bachelors and masters degrees. |
