Andrea Engelken-Cervenka, 44, filed to run for USD 383 school board on Thursday.
Engelken-Cervenka’s lived in Manhattan since 2001 after living in Texas, Colorado and Illinois. She earned a bachelor’s degree in English with an emphasis on literature at Kansas State University, while receiving certification in technical communication. Engelken-Cervenka works as a massage therapist and owns a nutrition supplement business.
Extending health to children in the community is at the top of her list for why she’s running for school board.
“I think it’s important that kids get good nutrition and education, and there’s a lot of resources in the community that goes to our schools,” Engelken-Cervenka said. “I would just like to participate in how that’s structured because I think it’s important that kids get the best start that they can.”
Engelken-Cervenka said she finds it important that parents are supported in their children’s education. She wants children to have the best possible schooling so they’re ready for life.
“I think it’s important that parents come first in regards to their children as taxpayers, and that the school board should be a service to the success of children: from nutrition, to education, to preparation for the future, ” Engelken-Cervenka said.
Engelken-Cervenka joins seven other candidates for school board who aren’t currently sitting on the board: co-director of McRel International Katie Allen, former Radio Shack owner Frank Beer and military veteran Robert Busby, Chick-fil-A shift lead Nolan Foth, stay-at-home mom Courtney Jane Hochman, retired principal Greg Hoyt and librarian Audrey Swartz are running as well. Kristin Brighton and Curt Herrman are running to retain their school board positions.
The city and school board elections are Nov. 7.
