One of Rosie Avila’s pastors is running for the SAUSD School Board

Jeffrey K. Morris, a pastor and teacher at Calvary Chapel’s Bible College Extension Campus, in Costa Mesa, apparently filed late on Friday to run for the Santa Ana Unified School District’s Board of Trustees.

I could not find much information about Morris online, and he doesn’t appear on my list of frequent Santa Ana voters.  Click here to listen to some of Morris’ audio Gospel lessons.

Former SAUSD Trustee Rosie Avila has been attending Calvary Chapel of Costa Mesa for many years.  Avila is known for her anti-immigrant views.  She is closely allied with Lupe Moreno, another Republican migrant basher who appears on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s list of anti-migrant nativists.  Click here to watch a video of Avila railing against the donation of books in Spanish to the SAUSD.

In related news, you can now read the candidates’ statements of the SAUSD incumbents, Audrey Yamagata-Noji and John Palacio, on the O.C. Voter Registrar’s website.  I copied the statements as well and am enclosing them below:
