Board of Education Preview | Selecting New President, Recognizing Volleyball Team Amongst Highlights

 

Who’s going to be the next South Pasadena Board of Education president?

It’s up for grabs, but if history has anything to do with it, the role will fall on the person serving in the board clerk seat, and currently that position belongs to Michele Kipke.

Reorganization of the board, including a new president and board clerk, is among the highlights of Tuesday’s Board of Education meeting, starting at 6:30 p.m. at the South Pasadena Unified School District.
