"Colleen will make an excellent board member. She is a parent in the district who is running for the right reasons and will work hard to support the students and staff in the district. She is the right person to represent you as a community member and tax payer. It’s time to end the nonsense and put the board back on track dealing with the real issues that are infront of the community. After serving 12 years on the board before stepping down, I still like to follow district activity. It’s time for reasonable and rational thinking. It’s time for the board to work together focusing on key issues, not manufacturing them. A board needs varying opinions, but at the end of the day you support those you represent. A board member should NEVER try to tear down the district they represent. Remember, a school board is and has always been nonpartisan. Please consider voting for Colleen Nowak." - Dan Van Straten, Voice of the Redbirds, Former Redbird Parent, Former USDD School Board Member

She is a thoughtful parent who brings both a passion for community and a deep understanding of the needs of our students, teachers, and families. She has a clear vision for our schools. With Colleen’s commitment to collaboration and community engagement, I have no doubt she will be a fantastic asset to our school board and a strong advocate for our children’s future." -Stephanie Levac, Co-President of Foxview School PTO, Redbird Parent
"Colleen is kind, understanding, fun and easy going. These are all reasons why I am grateful for her friendship. Beyond that, Colleen is someone you want on your team. She works hard and always pushes herself to continue learning. Her passion and tenacity are admirable. She values respectful dialogue over pontification, and she seeks common ground over polarization. Colleen will be an absolute asset to De Pere Schools as our newest School Board Member." - Anna Sutherland, President of Altmayer Parent Group, Title I Aide, Redbird Parent
"Colleen has a big heart and unwavering love for our schools. Through working with her in several volunteer capacities, Colleen has shown that she has the skills needed to make informed decisions that benefit not only my two sons, but all of the students, families and schools in east De Pere. I'm so proud to support her." - Jill Gerwing, Treasurer of Foxview School PTO and DPMS PTO member, Redbird Parent
