Northeast Ohio, Local
Martha Woerner has always passionately believed in a solid public education system and how it can transform lives. Currently building a family in Lakewood, Martha wants to ensure that not only her children but all children have an education system that challenges them, inspires them, and allows them to lead successful lives of their choosing. She is ready to represent young parents on the Lakewood Board of Education.
Professionally, Martha has worked in and with school systems for most of her career. She started in education research and quickly became convinced by her observations and analysis that having talented people supported to do their best work every day – starting with educators in the classroom but including school leaders, district administrators, and policymakers – is essential for solid schools. When elected, Martha will protect what’s great about Lakewood schools, expand on what’s excellent so that ALL students have access, and better family and community engagement.
