Constitutional Rights/#MurrietaFirst

Jeremy Murphy has long believed that schools should help students find their voice, think critically and engage responsibly in civic life. During his time in North Dakota, Jeremy worked alongside students, educators and state legislators to pass the John Wall New Voices Act, legislation protecting First Amendment rights. 

The effort required collaboration with individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives. Jeremy worked with people who did not always agree on every issue, but who shared a common belief in supporting constitutional principles. That experience reinforced his belief that meaningful progress happens when people stay focused on shared goals rather than political division.

Jeremy’s approach has always been rooted in preparing students for real-world responsibility. He emphasizes teaching young people how to communicate thoughtfully, engage respectfully and understand the importance of civic participation. Strong schools not only prepare students academically, but also help develop informed, responsible citizens.

This effort was just kind of a natural extension of that again, giving residents and parents the ability to vote on their representative on the board and for their schools.

We've got all this coded rhetoric about well-being and secrets and, at the end of the day, it's just bad faith gaslighting.

Engagement is a big deal - to keep kids interested and also keep expectations at a level where they are continually growing.

Pardue had previously voted to block a bond from appearing on the November 2024 ballot, which effectively took a vote out of the community's hands. You haven't always supported "We the People."

Press Enterprise - 9/26/25

Within the structure of the student-run media program, they are also developing essential soft skills that can be applied to any professional work environment. In an industry-standard studio space such as this, students are thinking critically, collaborating, constantly communicating and applying creativity in all of their tasks.

I love what I do. I love the environment that this offers students. But I'm a teacher, too. I love to teach in general. I mean, that's what I am first, is a teacher.
