Official Statement for Jill Morey Gaines
Candidate for |

|
I graduated from Tufts University with a degree in Child Study. After working as a special education teacher in Boston, I moved to California and earned an MBA from UCLA’s Anderson Graduate School of Management. Since that time, I have worked in the private sector as a bank Vice President and CFO. Over the past decade, I have been an active parent volunteer in our schools. I served as PFC President at Chaparral Elementary, Treasurer of the Las Virgenes Education Foundation, Vice President of Music Boosters at Calabasas High, and Co-Chair of the successful Measure G school bond campaign. I bring an extensive knowledge in both the areas of education and finance. I believe we are at a crossroads with the many changes taking place within our District. We have the opportunity to look forward, take action, and provide even greater opportunities to our students. I will work towards better communications and bridging the gap among our cities, schools, parents and teachers. As a School Board Member, I will look beyond the traditional framework and work proactively towards making positive and innovative changes for our students. I ask for your support. Thank you. |
