As a recent high school graduate, Board Member Ezidore is a staunch
advocate in building a school district in which all students can thrive. He wholeheartedly believes that the people closest to the pain, should be closest to the power, and leads with a deep understanding of the vital safety net our schools provide to thousands of students and families and is committed to advocating for, and building capacity around, the issues of education, labor, women’s reproductive health and political empowerment. 
 
Board Member Ezidore's career has been defined by tackling the hardest problems, building diverse coalitions, and delivering results for his community. His commitment to serving others was shaped by his family and moral values, which instilled in him a strong work ethic and made him a tireless advocate in addressing the complex
problems facing the students in this district.
