Endorsements

Some community members, including parents of West Lafayette school students and alumni, have shared their observations of my work as a school board member. I am using only their initials for endorsements to protect their privacy, as most of them currently have minor children in our schools.

L. C., Parent of WLCSC Student

"I knew Yue four years ago before she was elected as a school board member, when she conducted a survey to gather feedback from the community to help the school board making data-driven decision. She demonstrated strong leadership and dedication to community services. During her tenure as a board member, she has made outstanding contributions to our school district, such as promoting competitive salaries and more recognition for our teachers, staff members, and administrators, enhancing community involvement by advocating for board meeting times that accommodate more participants, encouraging parental involvement in curriculum reviews, and supporting mental health workshops. She always listens to the community voices and responses to the questions promptly. I deeply appreciate her efforts and wholeheartedly support her re-election."​

R. G., West Side Mom

"I have been consistently impressed with Yue's dedication and commitment to our community over the past four years. She has tirelessly listened to parents, and worked to make school operations more transparent. I remember when I had concerns about a particular issue, and she took the time to not only listen but also follow up and ensure that it was addressed. Her genuine care and proactive approach have made a real difference in our school district. Her re-election to the school board would ensure that our schools continue to move in a positive direction, and I wholeheartedly support her."

J. J., Father of Two, Purdue Professor

"Yue works passionately and diligently to serve our community and the school district. I was amazed to see her energetically devote so much time to community service. She uses her professional expertise in education to help improve our local education system. Her positive and proactive attitude has had a significant impact, such as saving a large amount of funds from unnecessary legal service, increasing teacher compensation, and enhancing transparency in board work. I fully support her re-election to the West Side school board."

F. G., Resident in WLCSC and Mother of WLCSC Alumni 

"Yue Yin stepped into a difficult environment at the school board and despite being on the receiving end of exclusion and discrimination she has remained strong and tenacious and conducted herself with dignity and poise throughout. This community needs Yue Yin on our School Board to further the excellent work she has done. Our community schools are better because of Yue’s work and oversight and we need to vote her in to continue to build a future for all students."

S. R., West Lafayette Parent and Professor at Purdue University

"It is my pleasure to strongly endorse Prof. Yue Yin as she runs for reelection to the WL school board. Prof. Yin has done an excellent job in the last few years, especially with regard to promoting community engagement, better communication, and increased student and teacher recognition. She is both an excellent educator in her own right, and a community parent -- she is driven by a desire to see kids in the community get the best education and be successful in their careers. I know we can count on her passion and commitment for this job."​

N. K., West Side Parent and Professor at Purdue University

"I knew Yue for more than ten years as a friend and also as my kids’ friends’ mom. She is always very caring and supportive. As a professor in Education, she is also knowledgeable in the field and professional. What impressed me most was the amount of time and effort she spent as a school board member in the past a few years. She pays great attention to details and always keeps the school district’s benefits as a priority. She listens to the community’s needs and brought various voices to the board. I really appreciate her efforts in the past and hope she will succeed in the next term."

L. P., West Lafayette Mom

"I've known Yue for 11 Years. She was my dearest neighbor as well as the mom of my youngest child’s friend. I consider her as a determined yet humble leader who is wise, considerate and kind. But I'm most impressed with her willingness to help other children succeed into a well-rounded person. "

E. W., Mom of Three in West Side Schools

 "I got to know Yue through my kids' activities and was immediately impressed by her three well-educated children. I have participated in or observed several community activities led or co-led by her, and I was again impressed by her incredible sense of responsibility toward improving community life and her strong, genuine interest in serving others. During her time on the school board, Yue has served diligently and has proactively spoken out for the students' and community's needs. I would definitely re-elect Yue as a school board member and am confident she will continue to serve our community well!"

L. N., Mother of Three in West Lafayette Schools and Professor at Purdue​

"Yue is a very devoted school board member. She once posted a summary of her work as a board member, and it took me hours to review all she has done. I remember thinking: How does she manage all this while being a full-time professor, a mother of three, and an active community contributor? I won't list her contributions here, as they are summarized on her website, but I'd like to highlight a few reasons why I'll vote for Yue again. Yue has a background in education and has been leveraging her expertise to address educational issues. For example, she has conducted surveys and used the data to inform decisions on various school matters. She is also courageous and stands firm when she is right, even under pressure. Many, including myself, might give up in such situations, but Yue persists. Her bravery has been widely recognized. Additionally, Yue is resilient and always seeks alternative solutions when needed. She works efficiently and selflessly. She truly cares about our children and our community. I encourage all parents and community members who care about our children to get to know Yue better and learn more about her contributions to our schools and community. She is an outstanding school board member and I will vote for her."

I. T., West Lafayette Mom

"I've met Yue Yin at my son's Lego Robotics team. At Robotics Yue Yin co-led the team and the team has won second place at the regional competition. Yue Yin is actively involved in the community, determined, hard-working, and affable.  Yue Yin already has made a great contribution to the West Lafayette school board last term. Yue Yin would make a great, now experienced addition to WL school board in a new term."

H. G., Former WLHS Parent Council Member

"Yue has been making a huge positive impact on the local Chinese community for years by facilitating the Chinese community's communication and contribution to our bigger community. I worked closely with Yue in some local activities. Yue is caring, capable, resourceful, and efficient. She is an amazing leader and also a strong team player. She got work done, effectively. I highly recommend Yue for our school board again. "
