My family and friends stand and support David Ackerman for School Board member. The only candidate who is not accepting money from BIG Business or from other companies or people who may want to influence the election process for maybe their own or business gains by the way I'm looking at it!
What do these companies and/or people from business get for giving their money to Alka Gupta??????
Gupta - $1,000 from Bhavin Merchant, a strategy consultant from Fremont
$250 from Darr Gerscovich, a senior VP of marketing for DroneDeploy
$150 from Kelly Fergusson, an executive at OpTerra Energy Services
$100 from four people: Ramkumar Agrawal, retired, from Sylvania, Ohio
[Part removed. Raises suspicions unfounded by evidence.]
Caroline Lucas in my view &/or opinion is so out of her depth and unqualified to hold the position of school board member. All my friends, parents I know and people I talked too in MPCSD will not support her. She just one of these people I will not trust my children education too!!!! It's too important!!!!

We all see from the US elections that BIG Business plays a role and each of these companies or people who donate money except something in return. You don't give money for nothing do you!!!
WELL NOT WITH MY CHILDREN EDUCATION!!!
This is why I will help and support a local candidate who is not accepting donations!!! Who has been a teacher, a principal in MPCSD, is a father and lives in Menlo Park. And is a great role for all our children and a amazing community member.

Don't be fooled. Caroline Lucas is eminently qualified for the board. Read her position papers. Parents are just freaking out because they know if she is elected she will work for financial accountability from the board and the district and the parents don't want that. they just want the taxpayers in the district to keep paying more and more. Because "it's for the kids."
Don't miss out
