“I am so proud to offer my enthusiastic endorsement of Monica Garcia for reelection to the GUSD Board of Education. She has been a consistent, visible presence at GHS, where I have taught for 26 years, and at every school across our district. She has been a champion of the AP Capstone program and has accepted our invitation to sit on the oral defense panel each spring for multiple classes. I am well aware that the hours spent at AP Research presentations and attending every fall musical represent only a fraction of her endeavors across Glendora, and that commitment, along with her desire to serve students and staff, make her a stellar board member and member of the community as a whole. At a time when even local politics can feel so divisive and extreme, I have always been encouraged by Monica’s resolve: she is always students first, and she believes in the transformative power of public education. And as a mom, it is clear to me that the “why” she wakes up to each day is advocating for every student as passionately as she has advocated for her own children.”
