Polly Taylor-Gerken Opens Campaign for Re-Election to School Board

Polly Taylor Gerken, first elected to the Toledo Board of Education for a four-year term in 2013, filed her petitions for re-election on Wednesday, August 9, 2017.  During the endorsed Democrat’s tenure the school board has adopted a strategic plan to guide the Toledo Public Schools’ efforts to change. As she filed, Taylor-Gerken emphasized her focus on that strategic plan which includes six goals: increasing student achievement and growth; developing district accountability; providing a safe environment; attracting a highly skilled staff; improving public confidence and ensuring effective district operations.

Taylor-Gerken is a native of East Toledo, graduating from TPS. Her daughter also graduated from the district and she has another daughter currently enrolled. Additionally, Taylor-Gerken worked for 20 years for the district as a secretary. She has her master's degree in counselor education from the University of Toledo and spent 10 years as a school psychologist. Presently, she is a self-employed licensed school psychologist and psycho-educational consultant.
 

 

Taylor-Gerken is one of three endorsed Democrats running for election to the three open seats on the Toledo Board of Education including incumbent Bob Vasquez and first-time candidate Ruth Leonard. Incumbent Chris Varwig, the board president, is also running for re-election.
