We, retired and current, educational leaders in Nevada County, need your involvement. For the sake of our high school students and staff, we must elect knowledgeable and thoughtful members to the Nevada Joint Union High School District Board of Trustees. Misguided leadership currently dominates the boardroom, causing confusion in the classroom. It is essential that you, the electorate, vote for three proven leaders who can restore order, maintain academic excellence, provide educational direction and put the needs of our students at the highest level of decision-making.
We urge you to elect:
Olivia Pritchett — District #1—Nevada City and North San Juan
Wendy Willoughby — District #2— Grass Valley and Rough and Ready
Ken Johnson — District #5— Alta Sierra and Lake of the Pines
