I am proud to endorse Michele Rosenbaum for re-election to the Riverdale School Board. Since 2021, her leadership has restored full-time learning and introduced innovative programs like the International Baccalaureate while ensuring fiscal responsibility in challenging times. As CEO of OpenDrives and a council member for Durham, Oregon, I value leaders who drive tangible community impact and Michele exemplifies that with her unwavering commitment to student-centered education.

Whether she’s volunteering as a chaperone on a High School field trip, offering her support on the playground at the Grade School, or navigating a board agenda late into the evening, she’s consistently proven that she’s an outstanding, impassioned leader who’s ready for all that lies ahead.

As a teacher within the district, I've had the opportunity to observe Michele Rosenbaum's dedication and commitment to our students and schools for the past seven years, in both her role as a parent and as a school board member. Michele has consistently demonstrated a deep understanding of the needs of our classrooms. She is a staunch supporter of bridging the gap between our middle school and high school. Michele's collaborative spirit, her willingness to listen, and her genuine passion for education make her an invaluable member of the Riverdale School Board.

I’m proud to support Michele Rosenbaum for reelection to RSD School Board. Michele served during one of the most successful and high-achieving periods in Riverdale’s history—and that’s no coincidence. Her steady leadership helped restore in-person learning, bring back key programs like field studies and a second foreign language, and strengthen both academic support and STEAM education. Michele is deeply committed to our community and incredibly generous with her time; she is always working to make our schools better. She played a major role in stabilizing our leadership and budget while also reopening opportunities for community use and alumni engagement. Riverdale is stronger because of her service, and I hope you’ll join me in voting to reelect her.
One of the most rewarding parts of serving on the Riverdale School Board has been the relationships I've built and the creative collaboration along the way. Planning this event with such a talented group of parents — and taking time to celebrate each and every child — was a truly beautiful moment. These connections have become part of who I am and continue to shape how I approach the decisions we make as a Board.
