I am thrilled to introduce myself. My name is Dr. Michelle Pierre.
I’m running for Chicago School Board in District 1.
I'm a devoted mother of two wonderful girls and a seasoned education professional with over 20 years of diverse experience.
My mission is clear: to leverage my experience, knowledge, and unwavering passion for education to transform our education system. I aim to empower families by ensuring they have the choices, information, and support they need to thrive and excel. Remember, at the heart of our district's progress are our families and their children.
