Melissa Spiotta Letter of Endorsement

To Whom It May Concern,

It is with great enthusiasm and confidence that I endorse Melissa Spiotta for reelection to the Morris School District Board of Education. Melissa has a long and proven history of recognizing needs within the community and taking thoughtful, effective action to address them. She possesses that rare combination of vision and initiative—able to bring people together and inspire collaboration, always grounded in a deep trust in the goodwill of others and a belief in achieving positive outcomes.

Melissa’s impact in Morristown is both deep and far-reaching. Her unwavering dedication to this community has been a constant throughout her life, demonstrated through her tireless work on behalf of children, education, public health, and community wellness. Whether serving as a coach, mentor, and advocate, Melissa exemplifies servant leadership and a life of service above self.

In recognition of her exceptional contributions, Melissa was honored by the Morristown Rotary Club with the 2021 Rotary District 7475 Jean Harris Award, the highest award given to a non-Rotarian. This prestigious honor reflects the esteem in which she is held by those who have witnessed firsthand the impact of her efforts.

Melissa will continue to be a tremendous asset to the school board, bringing not only her deep community roots and proven leadership but also a genuine passion for the success and well-being of every student.

Sincerely,

Donna J. Orr
