CVESD trustee Larry Cunningham says that CVESD incumbents were reelected because voters saw the truth.
Kelly Kilpatrick (Capistrano Unified School District) and I would beg to disagree. This is what Kelly has to say:
"...The act of voting for school district officials is more or less a crap-shoot for the average voter. Most of us make the most educated choice that we can, cross our fingers and push the button. We really have no idea whether the person we’re voting for is truly up to the task, nor do the majority of us even have an adequate understanding of what the task actually entails..."

I would go Kelly one further. I believe that those in power in schools join with other politicians to hide the truth from voters. This website is devoted to counteracting the ignorance that education officials try to cultivate among voters. (Some other time I'll talk about the ignorance that is cultivated among teachers and students.)
