Why they're voting for Kimberly
“My mom believes that everyone can do hard things…and so can she!”
— Kimberly's middle school daughter“My mom cares about all the kids.”
— Kimberly's elementary school son“Kimberly is a dedicated supporter of Laguna schools and a proven leader whose business has been recognized three times by Inc Magazine as a “Best Place to Work.” Now more than ever that’s the kind of leadership we need to unify our teachers, community and district staff and leadership in a shared mission that puts students first.”
— Theresa O'Hare, former LBUSD board member“From serving on LBUSD’s school board for 2 years as the Student Representative, I can attest that Joan, Shaheen, and Kimberly show up consistently and advocate on behalf of our students. They each bring a unique expertise to the table and are much needed in this pivotal moment for LBUSD.”
— Carter McKinzie, former student board representative“What stands out most about Kimberly is her commitment to transparency, accountability, and thoughtful decision making. She believes that strong schools are built through trust, open communication, and a willingness to listen to diverse perspectives. I am proud to support Kimberly for the Laguna Beach Unified School District Board of Education.”
