SCUSD Observer: Ellyne Bell elected SCUSD Board President


SCUSD Observer: Ellyne Bell elected SCUSD Board President:

"Ellyne Bell elected SCUSD Board President


Area 1 Representative Ellyne Bell was elected president at last night's board meeting, succeeding Roy Grimes. Bell was first elected to the board in 2004 and was re-elected last November. She has often had to recuse herself from board discussion about the consent decree high school because she was a litigant in the original complaint.

This news of Bell's ascension, combined with Jonathan Raymond's 'Take Risks for Kids' report leaves the Observer hopefully optimistic about SCUSD's political future."
