Without getting more specific, each candidate has so far discussed objectives from finding new and better ways to work with colleagues, teachers, parents and students to focusing more on accountability from the board of trustees.
Additionally, each candidate has referenced recent disunity among the board when discussing goals for their new terms.
Of the five sworn in at a Dec. 15 meeting, two are new to the board with places 3, 5 and 6 Trustees Amber Landrum, Amy Weir and Tiffanie Harrison returning. New trustees in places 1 and 4 are Estevan Jesus “Chuy” Zarate and Alicia Markum. They replace Kevin R. Johnson and Cory Vessa, respectively. Johnson was not in attendance.
All trustees except Zarate will have terms expiring in 2026 as he is fulfilling the end of the term vacated by former Trustee Jun Xiao. Place 1 will go back to the voters in 2024 along with places 2 and 7, occupied by Trustees Mary Bone and Danielle Weston.
