I’m not familar with Ms. Verino. Is she running opposed? Does she have any community college experience? Does she have a higher education degree? What about her opponent, if any?
These down ticket races are important.
darny,
Lynette is a graduate of Santa Ana College. She has been involved in local civic and community affairs for years. I know she cares a great deal about the community and about young people in particular. You can read more about her background at this link: http://verino4trustee.com/bio.html.
Interesting. I don’t think a Bacehlor of Arts or Science degree is critical, but the goal of a community college is to send young adults on to four year universities. It will be interesting to see what sort of educational background her opponent has.
