2 Trustees Are Assets to Las Virgenes District

* As English Department chair at Agoura High School, I have been privileged to work with both Judy Jordan and Barbara Bowman-Fegelson for many years in their tenures on the Las Virgenes school board. Their compassion and intelligence, coupled with their balanced moral sense of what is right for children, makes them skilled advocates for our local schools.

We have not always agreed; nevertheless, I have come to respect their courage and their caution in fiscally uncertain times. Under their leadership, we have embarked upon sensible and relatively cost-free reforms at Agoura High School to advance our students into the next century despite large classes and restricted funds and programs.

To lose them at such a critical time would set the district back many years. We need their sense of district history and their sense of our district’s future to move on creatively and prudently. The great gift they give us in their willingness to continue is indeed significant.
