Tomorrow, 12/12 is the first meeting with new Supt. Gary Woods. TVEA has a spotlight, please join President Edgar Díaz to welcome him to the district. He already made the rounds to many school sites including the TVEA social last week.
The community-led One Temecula Valley PAC submitted more than 20% of the required signatures to recall Board President Joseph Komrosky last week. The county has to verify the signatures if it qualifies for ballot consideration.
TVUSD Trustee agenda has a couple items with TVEA interest.

B) Consent Calendar #9 - Budgets $65,000 for continuous EMF monitoring at sites.
