Hi, I'm Andy Ellis
MY BACKGROUND
As a school board candidate, I am deeply rooted in this community and committed to making a positive impact. My journey has been shaped by the values of integrity, collaboration, and equity, and I am dedicated to serving the students, families, and educators of our district. I grew up in Halls, TN and attended the University of Memphis for college. After completing my degree, I stayed in the Memphis area, in Germantown, where I currently live with my wife Leigh and our three children, Runyan, Bylar, and Emme Leigh. In my spare time, I enjoying coaching lacrosse and basketball, golf, fishing, and working out. I like to spend time with my family outdoors, explore our city, and enjoy all that Memphis and the surrounding areas have to offer.

I envision a school system that prioritizes a well rounded education, reaching for the highest goals, and empowers every student to thrive. My passion for education drives my relentless pursuit of a better tomorrow for all.
