Bond committee focuses on transparency

“I would like to look at the technology that is available and look at the technology these students will be able to translate to jobs someday, and look at how we can best get that technology into the schools,” Sadd said.

Gevorkyan, a consultant for the city of Pasadena and a member of Clark Magnet High School’s first graduating class, said that the committee will serve to bridge community members and decision makers.

“It is very important that the bond oversight committee stays on top of the schedule for how the money is going to be spent…so the kids can benefit from the money,” Gevorkyan said.

Pierce, a former member the Crescenta Valley Town Council and the lead organizer of the Montrose Christmas Parade, said he would like to see special attention paid to South Glendale schools that are badly in need of upgrading.

“I would encourage people in the community to contact us and to let us know what their concerns are, and also to contact the board,” Pierce said. “This is their money.”
