"But the district needs Vogel, with her 13 years of board service, and Leong, a longtime district volunteer and parent leader, to get back on track....These are not challenges best left to newcomers....Vogel and Leong remain driven and committed to move the district forward. They will have our vote Nov. 3."

I'm honored to have the endorsement of the three employee organizations in CUSD. Everyone in our district works so hard, regardless of whether they are in the classroom, in the front office, or maintaining the facilities, because they care about kids. We must continue to work collaboratively towards the same goal of creating the best opportunities for our kids.
