I am overwhelmed with gratitude to all of you who came out to my kickoff event!
It was so wonderful to reconnect in person with you, especially right before our district kicked off the first day of school the next day.
I dropped off all the backpacks and school supplies we collected to the district for this Saturday’s parent conference event. Thank you to all who contributed!
Special thanks to my campaign team who made this event possible:
- Campaign manager Aasim Yahya who spoke so eloquently last night,
- my mom & fab assistant Mary Kay Melton, who brought wonderful friends from Viamonte at Walnut Creek,
- treasurer Erin Roeder,
- graphic designer Julie Contreras, Urban Bird Design,
- event organizers Ernie DeTrinidad, Meg Honey, Natalie Karas Ivankovich, Janine Payne Schneir
- teacher Mari Arenson for helping with set up
And to my fellow electeds who came, whose collaboration makes such a difference in our ability to serve students & families:
- Clayton Mayor Peter Cloven
- Clayton Vice Mayor Holly Tillman
- Contra Costa District Attorney Diana Becton
- Walnut Creek Councilmember Kevin Wilk
- Contra Costa Community College Board member Rebecca Barrett
- former MDUSD board member Joan Pierce
Whether we end up with an opponent in this race or not, I know that this group will continue to work together to make a difference in improving the quality of our public education for EVERY Mt. Diablo student.
For those who couldn’t make it in person but reached out with endorsements & donations, thank you and I hope to see you soon.
I hope you all are having a wonderful first few days of school!!
