recent campaign kick-off.

The Area 6 seat is presently held by Jacob Rambo who Ly is challenging for the seat.

Ly is a local educator, working with foster youth with the Sacramento County Office of Education (SCOE). He also worked promoting anti-bullying with SCOE, and as a substitute teacher for one  year in the Elk Grove District.

Ly previously

ran unsuccessfully for the school board in 2002 and he applied for the Area 6 seat

last spring after Trustee Pam Irey resigned due to health issues.  Rambo was appointed by the board at that time.

Ly publicly criticized the Board of Trustees in a quote by the Elk Grove Citizen at his campaign kickoff event last week, apparently referring to the labor issues that have plagued the district recently.

“You

have the fighting that’s going on, and at the same time the ones who

should be at the helm have forgotten that the bottom line here is we

have to provide for our students,” he said.

We'll talk to Candidate Ly, and ask him his views on where the district is now, and what he see's for the future.

This is a live, interview/call-in format. You can ask YOUR questions, by phone or internet chat.

Join us for lunch on Friday for the first in what is planned as an ongoing feature on RadioElkGrove..
