Ballots for the Great Falls School Board Trustee election will be coming out soon. There are
three positions to be filled, and four candidates. I’ve been asked by several folks in our
community who I support for these positions. These are my picks:
Gordon Johnson: incumbent, running for a third term. Gordon is our current board chair, one
of the best we’ve had. He is a strong supporter of public education, generously lending his time
and talents. He deserves a third term.
Paige Turoski: incumbent, running for a second term. Paige works with me on the Board
Budget and Policy committees. She’s a good hand. She is well-liked by our administrative
team. Her two sons are enrolled at Valley View Elementary. I support her re-election.
Craig Duff: newcomer, seeking to win the seat being vacated by Mark Finnicum. I’ve met and
spoken to Craig. He is retired law enforcement, and now volunteers at his son’s school,
Meadowlark Elementary, where he also serves on the school PTA. He has received the
endorsement of the local teacher’s union, and deservedly so, as he has a very strong commitment to our local schools.
Mail ballots will be coming out shortly. Please vote for Gordon, Paige and Craig.
