Nonprofit director, county housing commissioner and longtime community organizer Tracy La is running to represent Trustee Area 4 of the Garden Grove Unified School District Board of Education and put students, educators and working families at the center of the district’s future. Tracy La has secured key endorsements from the Garden Grove Education Association (GGEA), the Classified School Employees Association (CSEA) Chapter 121, and a large coalition of local elected officials.
“This campaign is about building a school district that takes care of our families and gives every student the opportunity to succeed,” Tracy La said. “I’m proud that our campaign is bringing together educators, parents, young people and immigrant communities across generations and backgrounds who believe our public schools should meet the needs of the families they serve.“
GGEA represents about 2,000 teachers, nurses, and librarians at Garden Grove Unified schools. Recognizing that Tracy La is a dedicated fighter for our public schools, the union issued an early endorsement to support La’s campaign for GGUSD Trustee Area 4.
Tracy La also earned the endorsement of the Classified School Employees Association (CSEA) Chapter 121, which represents 3,000 Garden Grove Unified classified staff.
