Re Orange County school board endorsement by L.A. Times.
It is inconceivable that after a decade of harsh criticism from inside and outside the Orange County educational community The Times would endorse two of the incumbent members of the county school board.
Norma Vander Molen, a former president of the Huntington Beach city school board, and Nicholas Siokos, a former Placentia schools superintendent, are challenging the incumbents Sheila Meyers and Dean McCormick, who have been members of a board which has allowed the $50-million-a-year budgeted county Department of Education to experience unchecked growth in an era which, by necessity, dictates cost-effective government.
Vander Molen and Siokos will not be rubber stamps for a top-heavy county schools administration but will instead breathe a breath of fresh air and hope into our schools. Our kids will be the real winners.
