“I totally agree with the foundational principal that the school board serves the electorate.”
– BD3 Candidate ByRoN Gutierrez
ByRoN Gutierrez is running against incumbent Scott Schmerelson in LAUSD’s Board District 3, which covers most of the western San Fernando Valley. As part of my ongoing Candidate Forum series, Gutierrez was asked five questions about how the District is governed. For the introduction to this subject along with answers from other candidates, please see the article LAUSD Candidate Forum: Governance.
The following are the candidate’s responses, printed exactly how he provided them with the exception of some minor formatting edits:
- Would you agree with the statement: “The elected LAUSD Board is responsible for setting policy. The job of the Superintendent is to ensure that the bureaucracy follows this policy.”? YES
