Candidate for
Trustee; Lake Tahoe Unified School District

Tahoe Mountain News: Vol.12. No.4. 2005 pg 65

"John Nemes retired from this district in June after teaching at the elementary level for 33years. He believes there are things in the district that need to be changed. He wants to be a voice for that change-at the district office, within the schools, with curriculum, with substitutes, with salaries."

"Although Nemes is used to the authority he held in the classroom, he will have to adapt to a more democratic setting on the board. He will undoubtedly get an education in how things work at the district office, that the state has more strings than a ball of yarn, and that compromise is imperative. We believe he is up to these challenges."

"Nemes will bring a voice to the board that will be refreshing. We believe the board needs a spark. He will be that spark."
