Lake Pend Oreille School District is known throughout the state of Idaho as a leader in student achievement, graduation rate, go on rate, and innovation. This has not always been the case and the transition to success for LPOSD is due to passionate and committed citizens such as Gary Suppiger.

Gary is the current Zone 2 LPOSD Board trustee and our school district and students are fortunate Gary is running for another term. I have known Gary Suppiger for 20-plus years and I’ve witnessed his investment in his family, our community, and specifically the fifth grade math program at Sagle Elementary School. Please recognize this is a voluntary position that he’s championed since our children attended Sagle … we both have children who attended Sagle, graduated SHS, have college degrees, and they’re all responsible young adults working in their respective career/degree fields.

Gary Suppiger is honest, critical thinking, and invested in the future success of LPOSD students and he is clearly deserving of your vote Nov. 2. While I do not live in Zone 2, I certainly encourage those voters that do to: A) please go vote and B) please cast your vote for Gary Suppiger.

A vote for Gary Suppiger is a vote for continued success for our future leaders, our community, and the young adults that will benefit from his leadership.
