Hello, my name is Joseph “Joe” D’Onofrio, your incumbent Ward 6 School Committee Member and I am running for re-election.
As a lifelong Everett resident of 30 years, I attended Everett Schools and graduated from Everett High class of 2014. Furthering my education at Bridgton Academy and Anna Maria College.
I have remained a strong and vocal supporter of working families, organized labor, and most certainly a strong supporter of our schools and children who are the backbone of our city’s growth.
Serving as your Ward 6 School Committee Member has been one of the greatest privileges of my life, and I remain deeply committed to working hard every day to represent your voice, address your concerns, and build a better Everett for everyone.
Over the past two years, I have helped approve five collective bargaining agreements, promoted student-centered budget priorities, and aided in the School Committee’s successful effort to bring stability and purpose to the work we are entrusted to get done on behalf of our students, teachers, and families.
As a trusted manufacturing engineer, Carpenters Local Union 328 granted me with a pleasing endorsement following my re-election campaign. Their decision highlighted my commitment to the community and advocacy of responsible development in Everett aligning the organized labor’s mission.
I also serve as your newly appointed Director of Everett Crimson Tide Youth Football & Cheer. A role that keeps me deeply connected to the next generation of Everett residents. We are proudly affiliated with the American Youth Football and Cheer National Program. Our mission is to empower young athletes and cheerleaders in our community by fostering a culture of excellence that extends beyond the field and into the classroom.
Through structured athletic programs, dedicated mentorship, and a strong emphasis on education, we strive to create a lasting foundation for our student-athletes – one that promotes discipline, teamwork, leadership, and academic success. We believe that by encouraging a healthy balance between sports and education, we help shape well-rounded individuals prepared for lifelong achievement.
But our work is not done.
I am running for re-election so we can continue our work to further advance a school district and a city that is inclusive, innovative, and driven by the values we share: community, accountability, and progress. I remain committed to transparent leadership, responsive governance, and solutions that put Everett families first.
I’m asking for your support, your trust, and your vote. Together, we can keep moving Everett forward. I am the positive candidate.
If you have any questions, ideas, or would like to get involved in my campaign, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I welcome your input and partnership as we continue this journey together.
Thank you for the honor of serving you. Let’s keep building a better Everett – together.
