A PRODUCT OF GPS

Jesse James Brainard is a graduate of Gilbert High School and the son of a GPS Educator. He is excited for the opportunity to serve the community he has lived in all his life. He has worked for five years for the State of Arizona in a nonpartisan role where he assists constituents throughout the State. With this experience, he knows the importance of working with others to find solutions to everyday problems.

 

He knows what it's like to be a student at GPS. He brings a new perspective to the board as a student who struggled at times with bullying, learning disabilities (Having an IEP & 504), and the juggling of extracurriculars.

 

With these fresh memories in mind, Jesse will be an advocate for student's wellbeing, academic success, and all staff.
