What Parents, Students & Teachers Say
“We were so lucky to have you as a wonderful and influential teacher in our child’s life. The kiddos feel loved and heard.”
Melissa Wilson
Parent
“As a former colleague of Bryan Jensen, I have witnessed Bryan’s dedication during the 9 years we taught at the same school, to not only the students in his class but to all the students in our school. Bryan always kept it about the students, their parents, and the community.
His understanding that teaching goes beyond the books was evident as he planned activities which provided new and exciting experiences, activities that built self-confidence in his students, and of course, academic rigor. It was evident how much Bryan cared for all students in the school and how much students cared for him. As a teacher, I am thrilled Bryan is a candidate for Salt Lake City School Board # 6.
As a former teacher in the Salt Lake City School District, Bryan will be an asset to the Board as he will bring a teacher’s perspective, experience, and knowledge, and provide insight on how Board decisions affect teachers’ practices in the classroom. It is such a pleasure to support a colleague, a teacher of such caliber, experience, and integrity as Bryan Jensen for Salt Lake City School Board # 6.”

His strong leadership, passion for quality education, ability to listen, and invaluable classroom experience will infuse our school board with positive direction and thoughtful, student-focused decision making.
Voters can directly impact our students through school board elections. Your vote for Bryan will support the future success of our children.”

“Bryan Jensen is the right choice for school board! Having worked alongside him, I saw first hand his dedication and skill as a teacher as well as his ethical and common-sense approach to solving the problems that often come up in schools. As a parent of SLCSD students at Indian Hills and Highland High School, I trust Bryan to make the right decisions for our students. As an educator, I believe that having a classroom teacher’s perspective is essential to help our school board make informed decisions that will most benefit students.”

“Mr. Jensen,
I appreciate the love of learning you instilled in our daughter. I have seen such a positive change in her since coming into your classroom.”

“As a retired teacher in the Salt Lake City School District, I realize how important it is to have a decisive, experienced, intelligent advocate to represent our area on the School Board. It is even more important now than it was when I retired from teaching four years ago. Unfortunately, our current board has become divisive and lacks trust and healthy communication among its members. Without any hesitation, I recommend Bryan Jensen as the person with the ability to unite and restore confidence and trust in the board. I have been a neighbor and a colleague of Bryan. He is a well-educated, experienced educator and understands the responsibility the School Board members have to the students, parents, and citizens of our district.
Bryan left his work as a lawyer and went back to school to become a teacher because he knew he wanted to be an active participant in educating the future citizens of Salt Lake City. He has seen first-hand the impact the decisions the Salt Lake City School Board have, not just on the education of its students but on their mental and physical well-being. He has observed the frustrations that occur when the board is not a cohesive and communicative body. Bryan is the right person to help the board work together for the benefit of the entire population of students in Salt Lake City. He is patient, caring, communicative, well-organized, adaptive, experienced, and well-informed. Bryan is the most qualified candidate. Please give your support to Bryan Jensen for Salt Lake City District 6 School Board.”

“I had the pleasure of teaching next door to Bryan for several years at Newman Elementary in Rose Park. Bryan was a dedicated teacher who prioritized student needs. His experience as an educator and retired lawyer makes him the most qualified candidate. His perspective and expertise is unmatched. I fully support Bryan and trust that he will continue to advocate for the students and parents of Salt Lake City. .”
