Lisa’s Mission

I chose to run for Pomona Unified School District Trustee due to my experience and commitment to access to quality public education and student success.  I believe in equitable outcomes for all students in a community that needs its students to be successful in the attainment of their educational goals.  It is important to provide students with a safe environment in which they can learn from their educated and skilled teachers.  I have the knowledge that includes and understand of the District, the diverse students it serves and the educational background to support facilitating positive movement to increased achievement for the students in our schools. 

I believe in equitable educational outcomes for all students at Pomona Unified School District and have three priorities to achieve this:

01

Increase school safety to enable students to focus on their work in school.  This includes ensuring adequate numbers of proctors during recess breaks in the elementary schools and passing periods at the middle and high schools and strict protocols reflecting zero tolerance for bullying.

02

Identify opportunities for student success by meeting them where they are at, including increasing Technical Training programs which enable students to obtain the skills that lead them to living-wage careers in career and technical education, while also exploring college opportunities.

03

Ensuring students in PUSD have the services to support successful academic achievement as well as enrichment opportunities in the visual and performing arts to not only enhance their educational experience, but provide students the ability to explore their talents in this area.
