We are delighted to write a letter in support of Jonai Singh’s candidacy for the position of trustee in the Herricks School Board.
As members of the Herricks Indo US executive board, we have had the pleasure of working with Jonai. She was able to share the voices of high school kids requesting that we fund an upgrade to the sound system in the high school; a proposal which was turned down by the Herricks School Board because of tight budget. This system was funded by HIUS and benefits all students.
From the moment Jonai joined Herricks Indo Us Community, Inc, she brought energy and vitality into the organization. As HIUS president over the last two years, she has reached out to our members, helped them understand the workings of the school system, increased voter awareness, and the importance of voting for the budget. She spearheaded fundraising events to raise money for all Herricks students. She worked as a liaison with the PTAs in each of the schools and came up with several ideas for the donations to the Middle and Elementary schools.
HIUS was able to sponsor an I-pad project in each of the elementary schools and Plasma screens in the middle school auditorium, so parents could see their children on stage.
She has always encouraged our members to participate in the PTAs. She advocates for every student and for the entire Herricks community. She is a true leader and inspires a lot of the parents to be involved in community and school issues. What has always struck us about Jonai is that she genuinely cares for EVERY child in this community and is passionate in everything she does.
We have no doubt that she will be a wonderful trustee for the Herricks School Board and encourage all to vote for her.
