At its May 20 Agenda Rundown, the Menifee City Council recognized three local students for spring awards, accepted a ceremonial American flag tied to Mayor Ricky Estrada’s military deployment and honored Dr. Jennifer Root for a statewide superintendent award.
The presenter named the student honorees as Dylan Inim, an all‑star athlete at Paloma Valley High School; Noah Chayades of Santa Rosa Academy, cited for academic achievement; and Enzo Ansomo of Liberty High School, recognized as an outstanding citizen. The council’s routine acknowledgments highlighted the students’ contributions to school and community activities.
The presenter said Mayor Ricky Estrada presented a U.S. Air Force flag dedicated to the City of Menifee. According to the recording, the flag was flown on a C‑130 aircraft that “experienced hostile fire” during what the presenter called “Operation Epic Fury” while Estrada was deployed; that account was reported in the Rundown and was not further detailed or independently corroborated in the recording.
The presenter also announced that Dr. Jennifer Root, superintendent of the Menifee Union School District, was named state superintendent of the year by the California School Administrators and was honored for her continued commitment to the education of local youth.
The Agenda Rundown said a full recording and the live meeting are available on the City of Menifee website under the agendas and minutes page and on Menifee TV.
The Rundown did not state the year of the May 20 meeting.
