San Marcos CISD board of trustees District 1

Miguel Arredondo

James Bryant Jr.
In light of the current COVID19 pandemic, the policies I would support would be efforts to reduce the risk to the health and safety of San Marcos CISD students, faculty, and staff. There should be no face-to-face contact instruction until there is an available vaccine with PROVEN EFFICACY!!! The lethality of COVID19 is evolving with lasting sequelae. The demographics of the Hays County reflects the possibility of a dangerous catastrophic spread.
Clearly, the most important issue facing San Marcos CISD is COVID19. All efforts for our district to function with 100% efficiency in delivering a quality education to all students, empowering them to pursue productive and fulfilling lives is thwarted by our best efforts. Personnel should not be placed in harm's way to effect our mission. I will insure that personal protective gear (PPE) is available to all students and staff. I will assist medical staff in identifying cases and preventing the spread. Deficit reduction must be on-going. Areas of fund balance should remain sacrosanct.
