Sheri Morgan launches campaign for school board seat
Long-time Laguna Beach resident Sheri Morgan has announced she will run for Laguna Beach Unified School District Board for a second time.
If elected in November, Morgan states her main campaign objectives are to return Laguna Beach schools to a standard of academic excellence, create policy reform to empower board leadership and community voice, return to fiscal responsibility, accountability and oversight, and rebuild community partnerships to strengthen our schools and use community and district taxpayer resources.
Morgan, who first ran in 2020, said residents strongly encouraged her to run again because district policy reform is a must.
The communities voice has been marginalized, she said. Pushing forward a $150 million Facilities Master Plan without community engagement, during enrollment decline of 21% over the last five years is fiscally irresponsible. Not one dollar of the $150 million went to educational programming. This is at a time when high school students have less flexibility in their class scheduling options due to a restrictive master schedule. With only two options for an AP class, for example, many students had to choose between the academic AP, passion elective or even not having a class.
