Soehnlen for Fairless

Hello! My name is Cathy Soehnlen, and I am running for School Board in Fairless Local School District in Stark and Tuscarawas Counties, Ohio. Let me tell you a little about myself!

I grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio and graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor’s of Music Education in 2010. I taught band and choir at Minerva Local Schools from 2010 to 2022.

During that time I met my husband, moved to Fairless, and had our first child. In 2022, I took some time off work to be a stay-at-home-mom. Now that my two children are past the baby stage, I am ready to contribute to our public school community in a new way.

I have always believed that a vibrant public school serves as a vibrant community center, and I am excited to get the opportunity to work with the amazing students and teachers here in Fairless toward that goal. I believe in servant leadership- it’s my job to ensure that the students and adults in our school district feel safe and supported enough to be successful.

I’ll be posting more on this site about my ideals, my campaign, and how you can get involved if you are interested! I welcome any questions or comments you may have.
