Jonah Schulte
Hooksett, NH
Political platform statement
Why I am running for this office: My name is Jonah Schulte, and I am seeking re-election to the Hooksett School Board for a 3-year term. Over the past year, I have been honored to serve our community by helping guide decisions that support our students while respecting the needs of taxpayers. My wife and I returned to Hooksett a few years ago with our three school-aged children, drawn to this town’s sense of community and opportunity.
Serving on the school board has strengthened my resolve to address the challenges facing our district. As education funding tightens, I remain focused on ensuring every child has access to the tools and opportunities they need to succeed. We don’t need extravagance, but we must provide a strong foundation to prepare our students for the future.
With over 25 years of experience as a software engineer and technical leader, I bring a unique perspective to problem-solving, innovation, and long-term planning. I aim to balance fiscal responsibility with the needs of our schools, while exploring creative ways to generate additional revenue. Rising education costs affect us all, and it’s essential to find practical solutions that keep costs manageable without compromising the quality of education.
I believe education is a cornerstone of any thriving community. I am committed to listening to your concerns, making thoughtful decisions, and advocating for solutions that benefit all. Together, we can ensure a brighter future for Hooksett’s children.
