Hi, I’m running for Olympia School Board district 5

A family of four, dressed in hiking gear, standing on a muddy trail near a wooden fence with a river and forest in the background.

My name is Gilbert Lamont, and I’m proud to be a father of two young children beginning their journey in the Olympia School District. I’m also a husband to a dedicated career educator, a military veteran, and a data analyst with a deep commitment to public service.

As our family becomes part of the OSD community, I’m inspired to contribute by supporting our incredible teachers, administrators, families, and neighbors in creating the best possible educational experience for every student.

I believe that when we keep students at the heart of our conversations and decisions, we build a stronger, more inclusive, and more effective school system; one that lifts up every child and reflects the values of our community.


To do this I believe it is important to keep discussions and actions student centered. 

Impact over intent.  

Collaboration is key. 

Inclusion is important. 

Empower educators.


Your support means the world. Every donation helps us connect with voters, support our schools, and keep moving forward together.

Chip in today, every bit makes a difference.
