Meet the candidate:

Hi, I'm José...

I am a 13-year resident of Grand Rapids, MI, currently living on the NE side of town. - With nearly 10 years of service to Grand Rapids Public Schools, serving as a Paraprofessional, Youth Advocate, and Behavior Interventionist across a number of GRPS schools, I am ready to continue serving this amazing district! With a Superintendent search ongoing and a new Strategic Plan on the horizon, we need a strong board who will fight for our scholars' success. Make sure to vote José Rodriguez on November 3rd, 2026!
