My name is Thomas Bull and I am running for re-election to the Baldwinsville School Board because I believe I possess the necessary skills and experience that can continue to help support and strengthen the Baldwinsville Central School District as we collectively move towards the future. I was appointed to the board in January 2024, elected in May 2024 and have had the opportunity and privilege to engage directly with Baldwinsville parents, teachers, administrators and most importantly students. We have an amazing school district, indeed. As a board member I have served on Policy and Facilities/Visitation committees for the Board of Education and the Code of Conduct and Professional Learning Team committees for the district. I continue to be impressed by the purposeful planning, organization and effort put forth in the pursuit of excellence in all areas. Professionally, I have 39 years of experience as an educator at all levels. I started as an inclusive elementary school teacher for 20 years and have spent the past 19 years in higher education as a school improvement consultant, administrator, and professor at Syracuse University School of Education. Currently, I am a Teaching Professor and the Director of the NYC Bridge to the City student teaching program. My personal philosophy, experience and educational pedagogy are directly aligned to the Board of Education and District goals, which focus on creating optimal educational experience for students and teachers, creating safe and healthy learning environments, being fiscally responsible and promoting collaboration, cooperation and communication. My wife, Nicki (a retired teacher), and I have been proud residents for 29 years. We have one child, Samuel, who is a 2016 C.W. Baker High School graduate, a 2020 Syracuse University (S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications) graduate, and is currently a television news producer in Pittsburgh, PA.
