Real experience, leadership and dedication.
“Having known Perry Ewell for over 20 years, I can confidently say I have never met an educator more dedicated to the profession. He routinely goes above and beyond, frequently being the last to leave the school, and his extensive tenure speaks to his deep commitment. Perry inspires his students and actively guides them toward success. Moreover, he possesses the rare and invaluable ability to step back and truly listen when challenges arise. His thoughtful, collaborative approach makes him an exceptional candidate, and he would be a phenomenal addition to the Nebo School District Board of Education.”
“I’ve known Perry Ewell for over 20 years as a teacher, community member, and delegate, and few people better reflect the values of our community. He is a builder—someone who lifts others and strengthens every community he’s part of. His students consistently come to the Capitol prepared, thoughtful, and ready to engage—I’ve seen this firsthand, including with my own children. Perry listens, understands that parents are the primary directors of education, and acts with purpose. He will be an outstanding member of the Nebo School Board.
“Perry Ewell understands Nebo schools because he has lived them — as a student, teacher, parent, and community leader.”
