RICH BOCCIADear Mammoth Community,

Thank you for your support of our schools and our children.   Your voice resonated throughout these great mountains yesterday as 73.76% of the registered voters supported the renewal of our local parcel tax – Measure S.   Thank you!

There are so many people that rolled up their sleeves when this campaign kicked off this past August and I am so very grateful to each and every individual who did so much to carry the day.  Every member of this community should be extremely proud of who we are and the support for our public schools. We need to continue to be creative in developing strategies that will sustain ourselves financially outside the arms of the state.   Yesterday confirmed that we continue to move in the right direction.

There are so many people that we want to thank for their support, their work and their diligence through those last “get out to vote” phone calls just before the closing of the polls on a chilly fall evening under a full moon.   We would be remiss though if we did not take a moment to celebrate our Campaign Manager Gwen Davis and Campaign Organizer Stacey Posey for their leadership in this campaign – thank you!

Our Vision is to have “Schools as Great as our Mountains” where we will become “The district of choice for families seeking excellence in education consistent with our unparalleled natural setting in a safe, small town environment.”

Great communities have great schools and we are grateful for your support as we continue our journey towards greatness!

With much admiration,
Rich Boccia
Superintendent of Schools
Mammoth Unified School District
