NORTHBOROUGH Mariam Ibrahimi recently announced that she has officially secured a spot on the ballot for Northborough-Southborough Regional School Committee.
Ibrahimi, who currently serves as the vice chair of the Northborough Diversity and Inclusion Committee, and is a 2019 graduate of Algonquin Regional High School, is running to become the youngest member of the Regional School Committee.
“I am running to amplify and empower the voices of people who are currently not represented by the Regional School Committee,” Ibrahimi said. “When we say we want more ‘diversity and inclusion’ in our community, it means having representative voices that don’t just have a seat at the table, but have the power to make decisions. With my experience in local government as well as community organizing, I would bring valuable expertise to the committee and represent those currently not heard by the committee, including students and people of color.”
