Three neighbors. Three distinct voices. One shared commitment to the students, families, and educators of Forest Lake Area Schools.
Healthy schools build healthy communities — and that work starts at the board level.
Jill Christenson, Andi Courneya, and Claire Luger come from different professional backgrounds and bring different lived experiences to this race. That's not a tension — it's the point. ISD 831 is a large, complex district that doesn't have simple answers. It needs a board with the range to match that complexity.
What unites the three of them is more important than any credential: a genuine commitment to students and educators, a belief that the board exists to serve — not to perform — and a shared conviction that a strong school district is the foundation of a strong community.
They aren't running as a bloc to rubber-stamp a single agenda. They're running together because they've found real alignment on the things that matter most: protecting educator excellence, supporting whole-student growth, stewarding public resources honestly, and rebuilding community trust. Three votes in the same direction — for the right reasons.
Straight answers on the issues that matter most — why we're running together, what's happened at the board, and what we stand for. No spin.
