Congratulations to Commissioners Jane Kim, Hydra Mendoza, and Kim-Shree Maufas
The Chron caught up with the winners in Jill Tucker's election wrap-up. They quote winner Jane Kim saying "I think I'm going to bring a lot of energy on the board." Hydra Mendoza was quoted, "I'm excited. I ran on my experience and qualifications, and I think it's going to pay off." Kim-Shree Maufas, who lost her voice, celebrated her victory by texting her mom: "XLNT, i 1"
As Commissioner Eric Mar said in a comment on the SfSchools list
The election of Kim, Maufus and Mendoza, 3 new strong progressive women of color, to the board will strengthen our progressive voice in support of equity, immigrant and language rights, and educational justice.Time will tell if the new candidates really will make Eric's agenda their own. One thing is clear, we will have new faces and new ideas on board to attack the many challenges facing our district. Good luck to them all.
