Lake Washington School Board's Ravi Shahani recognized for his community service

Ravi Shahani
LW School Board, Redmond

The December 5th business meeting was a big night for Lake Washington School Board member, Ravi Shahani. After 8 years on the Board, Ravi was retiring to spend more time with his career and family. Parents, students, board members and staff gave special recognition to Ravi for his dedicated service to the district.

Above and beyond official school board work,  Ravi is a dedicated and enthusiastic volunteer in our community. He participated in the city Education Hill Citizen's Advisory Committee ~six years ago advocating for Art, our schools, and technology. Ravi is a conscientious board member willing to sacrifice personal time for extracurricular board efforts.  For example, he attended Redmond city council meetings to promote district bond and levy programs. He addressed and informed Redmond Council on the acceleration of new information in our world and the challenge of keeping students current and future ready. And, we know he's done so much more!  Ravi's district BIO was removed from the website. No doubt, board member-elect Siri Bliesner is glad you'll still be around!  And so are we!

Thank you, Ravi for all that you do for our community!
