There are people in our lives we meet who we quickly realize are continually making a significant difference in our community and our world. Alison Meryweather is that person and is why she should be retained as our Issaquah School Board member.

Alison has spent the last 12 years advocating for our children and their education in our community. She has been heavily involved in PTSA at her local schools and at the PTSA council level and also advocating for education funding in Olympia.

Alison has been on the steering committee for the organization which organizes the Issaquah School District’s bond and levy campaigns.These campaigns have raised millions of dollars over the years and she has been a leader in making sure these campaigns were successful. She is a trustee on the Issaquah Schools Foundation and is vice president of Major Gifts. Her passion is the education of our children.

In March, Alison was chosen by the Issaquah School Board over four other candidates, including her opponent, to fill Chad Magendanz’s school board seat when he left to become a legislator in Olympia.

Alison’s experience on a district and statewide level is unmatched. We are fortunate to have her as an Issaquah School District Board member and we need to keep her in office.
