Meet Commissioner Esposito
“I believe every child deserves to feel seen, supported, and safe. Our schools should reflect the brilliance of our communities and prepare students for life, not just tests. Public education must be rooted in community, accessibility, and educational equity.”
Ashley “Ash” Esposito brings the powerful perspective of a parent and advocate to her role as the first mom elected at-large to the Baltimore City Board of School Commissioners. Since 2023, she’s helped lead with vision and heart, serving as Chair of the Policy Committee and a member of the Safety & Wholeness Committee to uplift student wellness, healing, and safety.
As a proud City Schools mom, Ash is a champion for community-driven solutions, inclusive policies, and expanding opportunity for every student. She believes families, teachers, and community members are key partners in creating vibrant, thriving schools.
Ash is running for re-election in 2026 to continue building a school system where every child can succeed and every voice matters.
Get involved!
Baltimore is made up of over 250 neighborhoods, each with its own stories, challenges, and hopes for the future. Together, they make up one city, and one school system that holds the dreams of every child. The question is: are we ready to roll up our sleeves and work side by side to ensure every kid in Baltimore gets a quality education?
These students aren’t just “someone else’s children.” They are our future neighbors, leaders, and community builders. We have a collective responsibility to be the village that stands behind them. When we commit to our schools, we commit to the future of Baltimore. Join our movement to support OUR KIDS, OUR SCHOOLS, and OUR FUTURE!
Limited on time? This is a city-wide race, and donating is a great way to fuel our campaign and volunteers!
my values
Community
Our kids are our community. Schools should reflect the brilliance of our neighborhoods. We must engage in ways that build public trust through transparency, collaboration, and listening to those closest to the challenges.
The sunflower is a symbol of inclusion, especially for those with hidden disabilities. Accessibility means breaking the stigma and ensuring all students, including those who need extra support, can thrive. Everyone deserves to feel seen, supported, and valued in our schools.
Accessibility
educational equity
All children deserve the tools to thrive, no matter their zip code, background, or ability. I fight for fair funding, quality instruction, and early supports that make a lifelong difference. Equity means more than equal, it means just, responsive, and rooted in care.
