Proud Supporters

Katie Karam has my full support and endorsement for re-election to the Barrington 220 Board of Education. Katie has proven to be a collaborative leader who can see the big picture of the community in this divisive world. She's responsive, she listens, and she always has the students at the forefront of her decisions and objectives. Not many communities are lucky enough to have committed volunteers like Katie to help operate their school districts. Please vote Katie Karam on April 1st! 

I have personally known Katie since our time as students together in D220. As a parent with multiple children in D220, I commend her focus on building a solid foundation for all children. Not only does she concentrate on children to excel today, but also the future, while maintaining fiscal responsibility. During Katie's time on the board, she has proven that she listens, processes, and is transparent. Katie uses these attributes with the community during every discussion and ultimate decision. The community is, and will be, fortunate to have her leadership and dedication towards D220. Katie is committed to making a secure platform for all children in D220 to excel in academics, athletics, and fine arts.' Katie has my FULL support for her re-election efforts, please cast your vote for her on April 1st. 

 I am thrilled to support and endorse Katie Karam in her reelection campaign for the 2025 D220 Barrington Community School Board.  I had the privilege of working with Katie during her first two years of her first term and continue to follow her work and leadership on the Board.  Katie is smart, thoughtful, collaborative, prepared and hardworking.  She approaches every discussion and vote with the goal of fostering a learning environment that both challenges and supports all children of D220.  Katie asks the difficult questions and truly listens to the answers.  She is a model leader of our community and a trustworthy steward of District finances.  I cannot think of a more qualified, discerning and compassionate person to serve on our School Board.  D220 is lucky to have Katie’s strong leadership on its School Board and I am proud to cast my vote for her this April. 

On April 1st, Katie Karam will have my vote for re-election to District 220's School Board. As a former teacher in the district for 11 years, a student myself back in the day, and now a parent in the community, I strongly believe the school board needs Katie. She has always put Barrington as number one! Katie does a tremendous job weighing in various perspectives to reach reasonable conclusions all while keeping in mind what is BEST for the students. She is a deliberate communicator while seeking out different points of view and above all, she listens. This community is BEYOND lucky to have Katie Karam lead this district to GREATNESS!

Imagine a school board member who listens, leads with integrity, and make decisions that put students first while ensuring responsible use of taxpayer dollars. That's exactly what Katie Karam has done during her time on the board, and it's why she deserves your vote.

As a parent with multiple students in our district, she understands firsthand the challenges and opportunities within our schools. With a proven track record of supporting academic excellence, fiscal responsibility, and strong partnerships between schools and families, she has worked tirelessly to improve education in our district. Her thoughtful leadership, commitment to transparency, and dedication to making every dollar count sets her apart. 

Re-elect Katie Karam on April 1st to continue building a stronger more accountable future for our schools. 

 I’m thrilled to endorse Katie Karem as she reruns for D220 School Board. I have been proud Barrington community member for over 30 years and have seen many school board members in that time and Katie is without question one of the very best there has been. Her dedication to the community has not gone unnoticed by all who have met her. 

I’ve had the pleasure to know her for over 10 years and work with her on numerous things most recently with the BHS Quarterback Club in which she served as a committee chairperson and football parent volunteer. There was never a hesitation in her ability to “tackle” any task given to her through my role as President. She was outstanding in her communication with me and always on top of her roles. I thankfully knew if Katie was managing something for the club it was going to run flawlessly and it did.

Katie brings so much to the community through her work ethic, time management skills and genuine care and concern for others. She has brought these skills to her D220 board position, and I know will continue to do so for the next four years.
