Per League rules, Bellino gave a 30-second statement on her platform.

“I was appointed last September so in these five months, I have learned a lot about our district and about our board – and (I’m) just excited to continue on,” Bellino said.

Bellino said she is a mother to three children who attend Geneva schools, the wife of a teacher, an alum of the district and she volunteers in the schools and in the community.
