This post was a group effort by Johnston Public Schools Supporters, a bipartisan political action committee.

The future of the Johnston Community School District (JCSD) is not merely decided in classrooms or on playing fields; it is shaped in the ballot box. On November 4, 2025, Johnston voters face a critical choice, one that determines whether our tax dollars will continue to build world-class public education or be diverted to systems with zero accountability. The decision is clear: we must elect the unified, experienced, and dedicated team of Justin Smith, Kaycee Schippers, and Rexford Davidson to the Johnston School Board.

This slate of candidates—a veteran educator, an engaged parent and paralegal, and a JCSD alumnus—represents the very best of our community. They will bring a formidable mix of classroom experience, legal knowledge, fiscal prudence, common sense leadership and deep, personal commitment to the Johnston School Board. More importantly, they are united on the singular, defining issue of this election: the unwavering protection and robust enhancement of our public schools as the foundational cornerstone of the Johnston community.
