Multiple Letters, One Big Point
A wrap up on my most recent letters on LBUSD
Over the last several weeks, I’ve written a handful of letters to the editor about Laguna Beach Unified. On the surface, they cover different issues: graduation, academic progress, the health care reconciliation, and school bonds. But to me, they are all about the same thing: whether the adults making decisions are keeping students, staff, and the district’s long-term health at the center.
That is what I’m trying to write about - sometimes it is one agenda item or a single public narrative that does not survive basic scrutiny, or it serves as a reminder that staff and teachers deserve more credit than they get. But the throughline for everything I do is the same: good schools need good governance, honest public conversation, and adults who know the difference between oversight and interference.
