School Board elections used to be straight forward enough. Just select a good candidate that had the will and experience to improve our schools and keep them current in this changing world.
Now, national political and or religious factions are targeting school board elections. Their aim is to control boards and thereby control learning agenda. Look around the world to see countries where political philosophy or religion dominates the schools. Not good, and not what we are in this country. Fortunately, I can recommend a good candidate for the SLOUSD Trustee #1 for our November election, Marilyn Rodger, who’s only aim is to stick up for what’s best for the children. She’s getting my vote and I hope yours too.
