Local parent group publicly endorses Javier Miranda for District 7

During the meeting’s public‑comment period, Britney Medellin spoke on behalf of Familia Unidas por la Educacion and urged trustees to appoint Javier Miranda to the District 7 vacancy. "As familia sunidas por la educacion, we express our support in appointing Javier Miranda as representative for District 7," she said, citing his experience in the Coronado and Franklin feeder patterns and his advocacy for students.

Medellin told the board the group has long advocated for "our children's right to a dignified education" and that the district needs trustees who understand schools from the classroom level as the district faces a financial crisis and enrollment challenges. The public comment occurred before the candidate interviews; trustees heard the endorsement but interviewed multiple applicants later in the evening.
