Teacher Advocacy Group Endorses School Board Candidates

Dear Editor,

The Noblesville Teachers Forum, the exclusive voice of Noblesville Teachers, proudly endorses Christi Crosser, Stephanie Lambert and Bret Richardson for the Noblesville School Board. After a thorough evaluation process, where all candidates had the opportunity to respond to questionnaires and participate in interviews, we believe these candidates are the best choice for Noblesville Schools.

Christi Crosser and Stephanie Lambert, the current School Board President and Vice President, have shown exceptional leadership. Under their guidance, Noblesville Schools earned state and national recognition, including being named a Top Employer in America by Forbes and achieving a Standard & Poor’s AA rating. They have also secured record salary and benefit increases for teachers while maintaining the lowest school tax rate since 2012.

Beyond their roles on the School Board, Christi and Stephanie have actively served the Noblesville community. Crosser has led initiatives with the Noblesville Chamber of Commerce, Riverview Health Foundation, Boys & Girls Club, and more. Stephanie’s experience includes working as an Indiana State Police forensic DNA analyst, serving as a Hamilton County Court Appointed Special Advocate, and holding leadership roles with the Noblesville Redevelopment Commission, Noblesville Marching Millers Band Boosters, Noble Crossing PTO, and the Noblesville Youth Assistance Program.

Bret Richardson, a sixth-generation Noblesville native, brings over 40 years of local business experience and leadership in countless organizations. His involvement includes work with the City of Noblesville, Noblesville Chamber of Commerce, Kiwanis Club, Noblesville Preservation Alliance, and Noblesville Main Street. Bret’s commitment to community preservation and growth makes him a valuable addition to the board.

All three candidates are also Miller Ambassadors Program graduates, Noblesville Schools student mentors, and serve together on the Noblesville Schools Educational Foundation, with Richardson as the current President.

We encourage voters to support Crosser, Lambert, and Richardson to ensure the continued excellence of Noblesville Schools.
