Why Claudia Vizcarra should be elected to CCUSD School Board…
When we advocate for another person’s abilities, we usually offer support for our contentions.
What makes my support of one candidate more insightful, valuable than someone else’s?
Serving on the School Board has proven to me that public office and its requirements are very difficult to ascertain prior to election.
I am motivated to speak for the unique skills and abilities of School Board candidate Claudia Vizcarra because she communicates with clarity and honesty. This endorsement stems from my observation of her human interactive skills, which are always tolerant and diplomatic.
Our School Board operates as a team. Exercising essential interpersonal kindness and generosity is integral to any process of decision-making.
Claudia operates on a daily basis with these qualities.
Whether she is leading staff for LAUSD School Board member Steve Zimmer or attending her son’s annual spelling bee, she functions with a conscious humanity and consideration. She brings people to solutions for issues of common concern.
As an intimate to LAUSD problems, she can provide CCUSD with considerable assistance on crossover issues such as our calendar start and conclusion dates. These are greatly affected by the decisions of LAUSD.
Claudia exercises considerable common sense on issues. She thinks long and deeply before voicing an opinion. Yet she stands upon clear and sustained values.
Anyone who interacts with Claudia will come away satisfied he or she has been given her full attention and concern. Regardless of her single mother demands, the turmoil of her employment and the intensity of traffic in Los Angeles, Claudia will fulfill her obligations.
She is running to add a bit more to her plate, but unlike many of us, her obligations are quite integrated. Motherhood, work at another school district and election to the CCUSD School Board seem quite relatable to me.
I hope you will join me in supporting this talented, hard-working woman who seeks a place on the Board. If you give a busy person a task, it is more likely to be done.
