Smookler et al.: Why we NPS parents support Jenna Miara for School Committee

As NPS parents and Newton residents, we’re proud to support Jenna Miara for the Newton School Committee.

Jenna is a thoughtful listener, bridge-builder, and tireless advocate for students. With directly relevant experience as a public interest lawyer and lived experience as a parent, she brings both heart and expertise to the table. She champions data-informed decisions, transparent communication, and inclusive practices that help every student thrive.

At the recent debate, Jenna stood out for her grace, clarity, and conviction. Her authenticity and depth of experience make her the kind of leader our schools need.

Jenna is refreshing because she isn’t beholden to city politics — she’s a neighbor grounded in shared values and committed to serving our community with integrity. As an independent voice, she’ll advocate for what’s best for our children.

In a moment that demands both courage and care for our children and community, we urge our fellow Newton residents to vote for Jenna Miara. 

With enthusiastic support,

Julia Smookler, Caitlin Nelson, Emilie Wagner, Laura Gellis, Miriam Blankenship, Jimmy Ansourian, Lindsey Sandell, Caryn Steckmest, Eric Smookler, Jessica Lincoln, Chris Barber, Abby Chud
