Suppiger knows the ropes and understands community's needs

I’m supporting Gary Suppiger for LPOSD trustee in Zone 2 because he is conservative, he is qualified, he knows the ropes and he understands the needs of our community.

Jalon Peters, Gary Suppiger’s opponent, has said what he thinks our schools need.  I think what he wants is not only unrealistic but destructive.

• He wants the schools to install surveillance cameras in every classroom to make sure teachers don’t teach “critical race theory,” despite the fact that such surveillance would violate privacy regulations.

• He wants to  “work towards terminating  the permanent levy.”   The permanent levy provides stable funding for the schools.  Without it many programs, including football and other athletics, and teachers salaries are in peril.  But unrealistically, Peters wants to expand Career Tech offerings, which is 90% funded by the permanent levy.

Suppiger has been a trustee, knows what makes school better for kids, and knows how to get it done.

• He worked to establish the Career Tech program

• He worked to establish free, full-time kindergarten

• He worked to keep the schools open for in-person teaching throughout the pandemic.

I am proud of our schools and I am proud to support Gary Suppiger on November 2.  He is what our kids deserve.

If you vote at one of these locations, you can vote for Gary Suppiger on November 2:  Sagle Fire District, Cocolalla Bible Camp, or the Mormon Church on Westmond Rd.
