Hello, my name is Bernie Lourim and I am running for a 6-year term on the Troy, Michigan School Board of Education for the term beginning January 1, 2017 and ending December 31, 2022. I have created this website to help communicate who I am, why I should be elected, and how I stand on key issues and questions. As I plan to do as a Member of the School Board, I welcome all input, comments, and questions.
