Dear Friends,
I’ve spent the last decade teaching students and supporting schools across San José and Santa Clara County, but especially here in my hometown of East San José. I love our community and am truly honored to serve our region as a nationally-recognized teacher, elected school board leader, mentor for our educators, and a parent advocate. I am the only candidate in this race that has direct experience teaching students and working with educators in all school districts in Trustee Area 6: Alum Rock, East Side, Franklin-McKinley, Mount Pleasant, and San José Unified. When the pandemic hit, I did what teachers do: we transformed learning experiences, made sure kids had access to meals, and took action to demand equity including internet connectivity and devices for all students.
Let’s work together to improve the lives of students and families and prioritize trailblazing policies that promote academic excellence, support early learning and youth leadership development, and increase resource equity and accessibility across our public school system.
In Community, Maimona
