–This week, Assemblyman Jordan Cunningham announced receiving the endorsement of Templeton Unified School District Trustee Katrina Merson, Former President Shirley Sigmund and Former Trustees Phil Keohen and Kevin Hamers.
“Jordan’s record on the issues that most impact our kids illustrates his passion for improving our state’s K-12 education system,” said former Templeton United Board President Shirley Sigmund. “As a former Templeton School Board member, Jordan understands how critical things like Career Technical Education are to providing a well-rounded educational experience.”
