​Elaine Fish – Board of Education Candidate

My family and I have proudly called Tolland home for the past 10 years. We were drawn here by the town’s rich agricultural heritage, small-town charm, and strong sense of community. As a mother of three—one a Tolland High School graduate and two currently attending THS—I’m deeply invested in the success of our schools and the wellbeing of our students.

Highlights:

• Graduate of the University of Houston, summa cum laude, with a degree in Elementary Education
• Former teacher and current diagnostic medical sonographer, helping patients make informed healthcare decisions
• Raised in Texas by a single father—instilled early on with the value of hard work, respect, and fiscal responsibility
• Passionate about public education, student safety, and responsible budgeting
• Brings compassion, a love of learning, and a collaborative spirit to problem solving

​I’m running for the Board of Education to ask thoughtful questions, ensure smart use of tax dollars, and advocate for safe, effective learning environments. I believe in listening, learning, and working together—and I welcome the opportunity to earn your trust. Let’s sit down, talk it through, and build a better future for Tolland—one respectful conversation at a time.
