CJUSD Board of Education to Fill Vacancy

The Colton Joint Unified School District (CJUSD) is accepting applications to fill an open School Board seat representing the district’s Trustee Area #3, which includes Grand Terrace and parts of southern Colton. On Nov. 1, Board Member Laura Morales submitted her letter of resignation from the Board of Education effective Nov. 22. A provisional appointment will take place in December. The appointee will serve until November 2014, when a special election to fill the position for a two-year term will be consolidated with the regular election. Applications must be postmarked or submitted to the superintendent’s office by 4:30 p.m. at 1212 Valencia Dr. in Colton on Nov. 22. Morales was appointed to the board in 2011 and ran unopposed in 2012. She resigned after accepting the position of Regional Public Affairs Manager for the League of California Cities in late October. Candidates must be registered voters and live in the school district’s Trustee Area #3. A map of the Trustee Area is available for review in the superintendent’s office. The Board of Education will interview applicants and select an appointee during a special open session board meeting at 6 p.m. on Dec. 10. The appointee will be sworn in at the annual Reorganizational Meeting on Dec. 12. The Board had the option of appointing a replacement for Morales or holding a special election, and opted Thursday to make an appointment to avoid the cost of a special election. Applications are available on the CJUSD website, www.colton.k12.ca.us, or directly from the superintendent’s office. For additional information, please contact Jennifer Rodriguez in the superintendent’s office at 909-580-6505.
