Board member Luciana Corrales
San Ysidro school teachers delivered petitions at a school board meeting Thursday signed by a vast majority of the District’s 225 teachers demanding that a Board member resign immediately.
Board member Luciana Corrales has come under increasing pressure to resign from teachers and parents alike. Thursday’s meeting became so contentious that San Diego Police officers were called in after a few community members and teachers began shouting at each other.
“We the teachers of Ocean View Hills are asking for the immediate resignation of Luciana Corrales from the San Ysidro School District Board of Education,” said Sam Sardo, a speech pathologist with the District, reading from a petition signed by 32 of 33 teachers at Ocean View Hills Elementary. “More over, she has encouraged parents to attack the District in ways that injure the students and progress of the District,” Sardo added.
