School Board Election Results – reason for optimism

Posted by equityshaker on 11/05/2009

Precinct by precinct results below show an extremely strong showing for Mearns.  She defeated the incumbent school board president in 27 of 28 precincts and districtwide by a margin of 23 points.   This is reason for optimism – the voters of Shaker Heights are paying attention and overwhelmingly supported a candidate who promises to address the achievement gap.
