Underly Understands Education

This letter to the editor, by Joyce Santo, appeared in the Hudson Star Observer on March 13, 2025.

On April 1st I will be voting for Dr. Jill Underly for State Superintendent of Public Instruction.

The most important priority for state government is to provide quality public education. It is through public education that our children learn how to become productive members of society. It is through public education where the melting pot of America comes alive. Children of all backgrounds come together and “E pluribus unum” (Out of many, one), becomes reality.

Dr. Jill Underly understands and fights for quality public education.  She understands how vitally important it is to our state and to our country to have a quality public education. Her opponent is a lobbyist who would funnel public money away from public education. 

Given the role public education plays in our lives we need to elect Dr. Jill Underly as our State Superintendent of Public Instruction.
