About the Candidates

Safe Schools First: Dan Smith, a former police officer, prioritizes safety. Clear rules, real accountability, and resources protect students and teachers. No more ignored incidents like BB guns or attacks without discipline.

Better Schools, Smarter Spending: Our students and teachers are the best, but too much money stays in administration. Mandy Bullock and Dan Smith will redirect funds to classrooms, boosting academic excellence and opportunities for every child.

Fiscal Responsibility: We welcome donors and businesses to partner with Little Miami schools, easing the tax burden. The rushed emergency levy needs an independent audit and community input, especially with the hidden 6.5-mil property tax increase from Ohio’s re-evaluation.

Neutral Classrooms: Education, not politics, belongs in schools. Mandy Bullock and Dan Smith commit to politically neutral classrooms, focusing on learning and transparency through live-streamed school board meetings.

Community-Driven Leadership: Mandy Bullock, a third-generation Little Miami graduate with kids in the system, brings a deep connection to our community, uniting families and taxpayers, not dividing them.

Endorsed for All Parents: Mandy Bullock and Dan Smith are the only candidates endorsed by the Warren County Republican Party, committed to transparency, representing all parents, and supporting school excellence.

Transparency, Not Gaslighting: Mandy Bullock and Dan Smith reject misleading “non-partisan” claims, openly embracing their values while pledging to serve all parents and students fairly and honestly.

Innovative Funding Solutions: Mandy Bullock and Dan Smith will leverage Ohio Economic Development channels to attract high-revenue, low-infrastructure-impact businesses to fund Little Miami schools, reducing reliance on homeowner taxes. They’ll revamp the Business Advisory Committee with proven business leaders, not levy rubber-stampers, to deliver real results.

Upholding Integrity: Mandy Bullock and Dan Smith lead with honesty and principle, standing firm in their values without deception, earning trust through actions that contrast sharply with misleading tactics of our and our unique heritage.
