All the politicians in Santa Ana swear that education is a top issue for them, from State Senator Lou Correa, to U.S. Rep. Loretta Sanchez and Assemblyman Jose Solorio. However there are NO candidates’ debates scheduled this year for the Santa Ana Unified School District and Rancho Santiago Community College District races. I find this incredible but this is not the first time this has happened. Two years ago there were also no SAUSD School Board candidates debates or forums.
This was not the case back in the day, when at least the PTA would get involved. But now our voters have no such opportunity to see the school board candidates in action. This is deplorable!
Other communities, such as Irvine, do host school board candidates’ forums, but here in Santa Ana this simply doesn’t happen.
At the very least I would like to see Senator Lou Correa host candidates forums for both the SAUSD and the RSCCD candidates in the RSCCD board room.
You can email the various administrators at the SAUSD about this here.

So, to recap, you and Amezcua rather stew in bitterness instead of helping the community? Thanks clearing that up for us.
Your post below reaffirms the value you place on us in a around way.
You wishing for us to be involved in the community implies community value. THANKS.

If you had any value the two of you would have already done something about the lack of school board candidate debates in Santa Ana. Instead you have spent all day attacking me.
Your values, or lack of them, are readily apparent
.
And yet neither of you have done anything about the lack of debates and I am the only one raising the issue.
Typical Republican. Unless an issue affects your pocketbook you just don't care...
The important thing at this minute is that you see value in us on how we can affect the Santa Ana Community in a positive manner. We appreciate this coming from your very much.
Now how do you want us to assist you?
Your pal Amezcua is a former Rancho Trustee, he is the president of the Kiwanis, and he is a chamber member. If he wanted a school board debate it would happen. Please ask him to get on this right away!
No way Alfredo wants voters to see his "little" girl in action before the election. She is a miserable and angry woman and is in now way fit to serve. Just ask those stuck working with and for her at probation.
Thank you for verifying Alfredo's value to his community.
" If he wanted a school board debate it would happen. Please ask him to get on this right away!"
You hold Alfredo in very high regard. He appreciates it.
OK he will work on this right away on your behalf.
Not on my behalf Art. This effort is for the people of Santa Ana. On their behalf I thank you.
You are welcome.
