Had a fantastic time attending Lincoln and Roosevelt's 6th grade promotion ceremonies yesterday. Love being able to celebrate with our community this milestone in their child's life. Go AESD!!!

Yesterday, I had the privilege of watching AESD's Mariachi All Stars perform at the Community Schools Conference in Long Beach and they rocked it! Nothing fills me with more pride than getting the opportunity to brag about our talented scholars to educators throughout the United States. So proud of our students; they seriously were amazing!!! Go AESD!!!

I had a fantastic time last night at the annual ACSA Administrators of the Year celebration. I am so proud of Principal Stephanie Shumate, the principal of Sunkist Elementary School, one of the 5 elementary schools in D5 that I proudly represent. This is a well deserved recognition for all the AMAZING things Principal Shumate does for our Sunkist scholars and our community. So proud! Congrats Principal Shumate!!! 🎉👏🏽🥳

Last week I attended, along with hundreds upon hundreds of our AMAZING students and families from AESD, the Music, Art, and Creativity Festival our district hosts annually at Pearson Park. It was a beautiful afternoon, the music coming from the amphitheater was fantastic, and I had a blast visiting with our families and old friends. I absolutely LOVE events like this that celebrate our community and the VAST amount of talent that is here in Anaheim. Go AESD!

Last Wednesday, I had such a blast at the Anaheim Elementary Succeeds soccer championship. This event was even more special to me because one of the schools fighting to be the champion was none other than Edison Elementary School, a school in D5 that I proudly represent. Edison played fantastic and in the end, ended up beating Patrick Henry, who also played well. Good times were had by all, especially all our students and families from the Edison community who came out to cheer on their fellow Eagles. Great job Edison!!!

At our board meeting last week, we had the honor of recognizing our 2025-2026 classified employeees of the year! I firmly believe AESD has some of the BEST classified employees in the county. Their hardwork and dedication to our students is seen every day. A special thank you to all our amazing classified employees!
