ENDORSEMENTS

“Beaverton Schools deserve a leader like Karin Stark. She has been a valuable voice ensuring community input on important decisions made by the district and has stood up for our students by standing with our teachers — that’s why she’s endorsed by the teachers union. She will bring her experience as an educator and as a parent of kids in our schools. With Karin on the board, I know that the community will have a voice and equity will be front and center.”
Dr. Tammy Carpenter, Beaverton School Board
“Beaverton educators enthusiastically support Karin Stark because she has shown time and again that she will fight for Beaverton students and schools. Karin asks questions and approaches every situation with curiosity and a conviction that our students deserve the very best. She is a champion for public schools who is ready to challenge the status quo and fight for the schools our students, educators, and communities deserve.”
Lindsay Ray, President of Beaverton Education Association
“As a future and former teacher, leader for Save Our Schools, and mom to BSD kiddos, Karin has the courage and drive to break down the walls that have intentionally separated the District and Board from the community. Karin embraces open discourse, shared decision-making, and transparency. She will work tirelessly to rebuild trust and represent ALL of us!”
Claire Reneau, Westview High School French teacher and BSD mom of two
Karin is supported by parents, educators, leaders and neighbors from throughout our community
