A note that I am terrible at updating ALL the socials every time. I'm much more active on Instagram and Facebook. Find me here: linktr.ee/trusteedoll

Today offered a powerful contrast in the work of a school board trustee. This morning: the ASBA FGM, where trustees from across AB debated & voted on advocacy positions that will guide our collective efforts at the provincial level. These decisions help shape the long-term direction of public ed.

My life for the last few months: "Oh you're Sarah Doll!? I've seen your signs!" And so it continues.... 😍🥰 Thank you @lynnwoodschool for the warm and fuzzies today!

What have I been up to? Every millennial's nightmare...setting up and remembering a whole bunch of new passwords. Regular updates are coming soon once orientation is complete and we dig into the work. Sign up here for regular emails from me.

Today it was an absolute privilege to be sworn in as Ward E Trustee for Edmonton Public School Division. I'm honoured to have been chosen to represent you. Thank you for trusting me with your students and your communities.

We did it, Ward E! Thank you to everyone who voted, donated, volunteered, or reminded me what I was working for throughout this campaign. You made this happen, and I’m so grateful.

Polls are closed. Votes are being counted. Thank you to everyone who believed in this campaign. I'll be signing off until we have final vote results. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Your support meant the world to me.

Quick endorsement thread. I've been very humbled by the support I've received. I'll add more as they come in.

Proud to stand with teachers, students, and families today at the legislature. We need to fund public education in Alberta properly and fairly. #publiceducation #soldarity #ata #abpubliced

I'm incredibly honoured to have earned an endorsement from Heather MacKenzie, former Edmonton Public Ward E Trustee. Heather is a dedicated advocate for human rights, community builder, and an all-around force for good in this city. Thank you so much for your support, Heather.

Thrilled to be endorsed by Michael Phair, former Edmonton City Councillor and adjunct professor with the Institute for Sexual Minority Studies and Services at the U of A. Michael has always been a courageous advocate for public education, equity, and marginalized communities.

Today, on Truth and Reconciliation Day, we honor survivors of residential schools and commit to action. As a trustee, I will focus on answering the TRC Calls to Action especially those that apply to education:

Knocking in @west_jasper_place_yeg tonight and I want to address something that's coming up time and time again at the doors: These ATA signs are on the lawns of teachers, yes, but more often than not who answers the door is a loved one.

This morning Minister of Finance Nate Horner announced that they'd reached a tentative agreement with @albertateachers.bsky.social. Does this mean we have avoided a teacher strike? Not yet. I wouldn't cancel your contingency plans. More to come.... #abteacherstrike #fundpubliceducation

Saturday: Emergency room. Tuesday: Back knocking doors in Ward E. I’ve run this campaign the same way I've always done advocacy—and the same way I’ll serve as trustee: by working hard, even when it’s tough, and by actually showing up for people.

Thanks you so much to my friends, family, and many supporters in Ward E for making my campaign launch party such a huge success! The vibes were immaculate -- a hard won evening a celebration by many who have joined me in the fight for inclusive public education over these many years.

I had the best time on the doors in Wedgewood! The residents there all had tough questions- the best kind! We talked about how the division's budget is allocated, the role of trustee, what governance actually means, & how my plan for policy creation will help make an actual impact for students.

Looking back at the ground we’ve covered, and I'm incredibly proud. I've been putting in the work - not only at the doors - connecting with residents. This is nothing new for me, so sometimes I forget the incredible amount of hard work and time a good campaign takes.

I've been humbled by the support from my network. I'll be sharing endorsements between now & Oct. Justine is a relentless advocate for human rights and inclusion minded EA to very lucky students. We met on the picket line, and she's been an amazing help with my campaign.

Happy First Day of School! While reflecting on the first day of school with my own family, I am sending love to the families with disabled students who often struggle during this time of year.

Spent the day volunteering at the annual Labour Day BBQ put on by the Edmonton District Labour Council. Such an awesome event where workers come together in solidarity and support the community. It feels so good to give my time to such a good cause. Thank you so much to the organizers!

Dystopian. 👇👇👇

It's been a LONG day of honestly quite dystopian news in regard to our public schools and our school division. My thoughts on the book ban are posted, but I couldn't let the day end without putting my well known stance on the record once again because these kids deserve to hear it over & over.

This is disingenuous. The only public statement from the board on this was in May, prior to the Ministerial Order, and there's not a peep after that. The board has consistently failed to speak up on the issues that matter.

Unacceptable. The anticipatory compliance is unreal. This need alongside the fact that EPSB will be asking students to report to athletics with a form signed stating their biological sex shows this division is ready to bend over backwards to play into this harmful government overreach.

Heatwave? No problem. I've been knocking all weekend and early this week . We talked to hundreds of folks all over the south west side in communities like Cameron Heights, Stillwater, Edgemont, River's Edge and more. The most common concerns were lack of schools and hour long bus rides.

The support from my network has been so heartwarming and humbling. It's been amazing to see my years of hard work advocating have been recognized. I will be sharing endorsements between now and October. Cheryl is a former EA who has followed my work and cares deeply about our kids: 1/4

Special guest on the campaign trail today in Quesnell Heights & Rio Terrace where voters are very plugged into the issues and deeply concerned for the future of public education. The big topic today on the doors was what exactly is my plan? How do we sort out this mess? 1/2

As someone who's been openly critical of our education system, I’m often told people are excited to see my vision for change. On Sept 1, I’m launching my platform to make that vision clear. 🧵👇 #dollfortrustee #epsb #yegelection2025 #savepubliced

Milestone selfie! Taken shortly after we hit the 5000th door in Ward E! Not bad, but still a few more to hit... 37,000 to be exact.🫣 Anywho... 😅😅😅Sign up here to help me get to every door on Ward E: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

See? I knew it could be done all along. It wasn't impossible without more $. All we needed was a conversation. EPSB officially has only 90 seclusion rooms heading into this coming school year. Last fall we had 188. Usage dropped over 50%. 1/2

I've been humbled by the support from my network. I'll be sharing endorsements between now and October. Ashley is a strong advocate for kids who need a little extra help. I've been lucky to know her and learn from her 🙂 Thank you Ashley! 1/2

Another rainy day in Oleskiw. 50k steps to hit 1000 doors! Many great conversations about how we - and I mean ALL of us - need to fight to save public education and just how we do it. If my team missed you on the doors, please feel free to reach out! #dollfortrustee #yegelection2025 #savepubliced

I couldn't agree more. Back to Oleskiw tonight to door knock! #dollfortrustee #yegelection2025 #edmontonelections #edmontonelections #warde #warde #savepubliced

There isn't much I'm scared of, but this keeps me up at night. Disabled students can't wait another four years - they need advocates at the table... now. #edmontonelections #dollfortrustee #runningforoffice #publiceducation #yegelection2025 #epsb #edmontonpublic #savepubliced #biggestfear

Dechene & Donsdale are on the books! Thanks for all the great convos and warm welcome! It's encouraging to meet so many who care about public ed and know we need to have trustees who are going to defend it with the passion it deserves. Public ed is a public good we can't afford to lose. 1/2

This week on the doors I'm realizing that my reputation precedes me. But let's get to know each other if we don't yet! #WhatIStandfor #GetToKnowMe #yegelection2025 #dollfortrustee #edmontonelections #SavePublicEd #warde #publiceducationmatters

Happy Heritage Day Today we celebrate the diverse heritage of all who inhabit these lands. I am grateful for our diversity & know that we need to learn and grow from the perspectives & cultures of those around us. It's important that we care for & celebrate our communities. 1/2

We’ve knocked on thousands of doors in 10 neighbourhoods so far—and everywhere we go, the message is clear: public education matters. Want to help us reach the next 10? Join us at sarahdoll.ca #dollfortrustee #yegelection2025 #edmontonelections #SavePublicEd #warde #epsb #volunteerwithus

Hot but wonderful day on the doors in Westrige today! We had so many great conversations and met quite a few present and retired educators. Voters here know how important the upcoming election is and deeply value public education.

Yesterday I attended an open session put on by the Edmonton & District Labour Council, Canadian Labour Congress and CECU about volunteering for upcoming municipal campaigns. The workshop gave an overview of why and how to help your municipal candidates. I learned a lot! 1/2

On the doors today in Rio Terrace -- a beautiful community full of folks who care deeply about public ed! We heard about issues with school transportation, overcrowding, and programming Thanks for the warm welcome Rio Terrace! #edmontonelections #yegelection2025 #dollfortrustee #warde #edmonton

Congratulations to Ron Thompson on your appointment as the new Superintendent of Edmonton Public Schools. As a parent of disabled students, an education advocate, and a trustee candidate, I look forward to working with you and pushing for an era of radical inclusion at EPSB. 1/2

What we’ve been doing to protect public ed isn’t working — and things are worse than in 2021. The next 4 years will be tough. We need trustees who won’t back down, won’t play nice when it hurts students, and won’t flinch under pressure. #savepubliced #yegelections #dollfortrustee #edmontonelections

Lawn signs are nearly ready to go, all I need is your lawn! If you live in Ward E, I would love to bring you a lawn sign. If you don't, you can still help by asking your friends and family in the area or by pitching in to help cover the cost of signs so we can reach more people. 1/2
