HAYWARD SCHOOL BOARD | Two current members of the Hayward School Board are participating in an inappropriate relationship, according to text messages obtained by The Citizen. In addition, numerous sources, including the disgruntled ex-fiance who confronted one of the alleged participants last January, say School board members Jesus Armas and Maribel Heredia have been an item for, at least, one year, without revealing their relationship to fellow board members and school adminstrators.
Whether improper or not, Armas is married with two adult children, the secret relationship could run afoul of state sunshine laws and give critics of the city’s downtrodden school district additional fodder to seek change in its leadership. The district, ranked one of the worst in California, has laid in the shadow of a potential takeover by the state for several years due to overspending and general mismanagement. Armas did not responded to an email sent Tuesday. However, Heredia denied the affair and said no violation of the Brown Act have occured.
“Given the amount of mis-information out there and the personal attacks founded by absurd and vindictive people without values or ideals, I hesitate to comment at all,” wrote Heredia on Wednesday afternoon. “I, fortunately, have many trusted and valued friends. Some of which are valued and trusted members of our educational community, the extent of those friendships are not known to anyone. Anything else is supposition and rumor, designed to remove the focus from our success and work for the educational needs of our students and families.
“I am familiar with the Brown Act and those who understand the law, know there is no possibility of any violation ever occurring on my account. And
those who know me, know there is never an occasion to question trust in my character.”
Rumors of the illicit love affair had been heard around Hayward’s chatty community of politicos and business owners going back to late last year. Two sources, who asked that their names not be used because of their ties to the school district, said the couple’s arrival last June 5 at an election party for the passage of the city’s school parcel tax confirmed for them the two were having an affair. “If you didn’t know anything about them, you would surely guess they were together,” said the contact, who also noticed Armas carrying Heredia’s handbag upon arriving at the event.
Text messages from between June 13 to June 26 from Armas to Heredia also shed light on an love affair progressing more further along than playful flirting among consenting adults and describe numerous meetings during the short period of time. “So, what did you buy?” asked Armas in a text on June 16. “Crotchless panties,” said Heredia.
In another, Heredia describes having a headache and doubts she will attend the school board meeting that evening. “We have a lot on agenda. ¾ principals, budget, SPSA, music, ELD/ALD waivers and more. Will u b able attend? Maybe u can go home and rest beforehand,” texted Armas. “Can’t rest,” replied Heredia. “head feels better when you are holding me.” A minute later Armas offers, “How about after mtng.”
A day earlier on June 19, Heredia seems to reveal the deepening relationship, in her mind, between her and Armas when she complains he abruptly changed plans between them in order to attend an A’s game. “Don’t know why you are telling me at the last minute about the change in plans. I am upset,” Heredia texted. Apparently unaware of the reference, Armas says, “It’s not rushed. Let’s have lunch.”
“Not talking about lunch Jesus,” she replies in two messages. “I thought you were coming over tonight. You changed plans at the last minute or you had planned to go to game, and did not think about letting me know. very thoughtless of you.”
Joe Aldana, Heredia’s ex (the two were together 18 years, but never married and have two children together), says he confronted Armas about the affair in late January after reading other text messages and being aware of numerous phone calls between the two. A school board-sanctioned trip to Sacramento for an education conference attended by both Armas and Heredia fueled Aldana’s suspicions the two were having an affair. Armas never admitted the affair, recalls Aldana, but remained cagey during the questioning and attempted to console Aldana about his personal problems with Heredia and its effects on their children. However, Armas mentioned his wife had begun worrying about gossip in the community over numerous public appearances between himself and Heredia, said Aldana, who is seeking joint custody with Heredia of their two children, 16 and 10-years-old.
Apparently, being a member of elected office in Hayward is becoming a more successful route to romance than joining Match.com. As reported in The Citizen last month, Armas’ successor in the city manager’s office, Greg Jones, also entered into a secret relationship with then-Councilwoman Anna May. The Council and city attorney, in that case, pressed the two to reveal their budding romance, but neither would do so. The situation ultimately led to the council holding closed session meetings without May and, according to sources aware of the council’s thought process; they were setting the path to fire Jones. He eventually resigned in March 2010, but returned this month to the council after winning election last June. In the Jones/May affair there is one major difference: May was technically Jones’s boss. The council hires the city manager. In the case of Armas/Heredia, both are equals on the school board, however, there is reason to worry both discussed agenda items together and with other members of the board. Member-to-member discussion is permitted under the Brown Act, as long as the group does not exceed a majority of the board. Hayward’s school board consists of five members. The Citizen also obtained a transcript of deposition where Heredia described not reading agenda packets beforehand and admits to relying on another board member to explain some business-related items to her. (Details of the transcript will be reported in The Citizen in coming days.)
Outside the salaciousness of the situation involving Armas and Heredia, their secret romance presents the school district and city with a list of potential pitfalls surely heightened by the volatility nature of extramarital interpersonal relationships. For instance, earlier this month in Southern California, a male city councilman in San Fernando was forced to resign and admit his extramarital affair in public with another member of the council, coincidentally, also named Maribel. Both council members had recently gained temporary restraining orders against each other stating they must stay at least 100 feet from each other. The forced arrangement obviously made sitting together on the chamber’s dais impossible and .
In Hayward, it is widely accepted that Armas is the city’s most well-known insider and fixer. His expertise on a bevy of governmental issues is highly sought after not only in Hayward, but in surrounding cities. In 2009, Armas even consulted for Sutter Health in gaining approval from the Alameda County Board of Supervisors to pass the hospital provider’s environmental impact review to begin rebuilding Eden Medical Center in Castro Valley. If there is a person who knows how to get things done and, more importantly, how not to, it is Armas, according to numerous contacts in Hayward. After serving as city manager earlier this decade, he was appointed to the school board in 2010 and won re-election later that year. Armas recently pulled papers to again run for re-election this November.
Heredia is far less known. She won election to the school board in 2008 on the heels of opposition to the No Child Left Behind Act and participated in a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Education that was critical of a section in the law defining unlicensed teachers as highly qualified. It is believed, through sources, she too will run for re-election this fall.
UPDATE-7/25/12, 3:40 p.m.: A statement from Heredia was included in this article.

I think every town has stupid people like Armas+Heredia+Lisa.

Amazing that nothing has been done by the higher ups on this issue. I have no respect for anyone who has power in Hayward, for the Hayward superintendant and now even Alameda officials for letting this slip by. Those people that Maribel Hardadia mention early on that supported her cause, where are you? Would you stand beside her now, knowing that she is a mistress and couldn't keep her legs closed to finish the business at hand? And for her to have the audacity to come before the community she represents and blatantly lie about where she was when her children were not in school? Hold your head up high Maribel, doesn't matter that you know what your thinking everytime you sit down behind that placard that says BOARD OF TRUSTEES. You too Senor Armas, or should we now call you captain “underpants”, cause you couldn't keep them on!
We shouldn't have to wait until their term is over, they have disgraced this community and their families, we need them to resign NOW! Please keep the pressure on and even after they are replaced, share the information so that they can see that our Hayward community has power too.

McGee was right in that many people didn't show up because they fear retribution. The fact that Armas asked people to raise their hands to show their affiliation was really uncalled for and a not so veiled attempt at intimidating people. One obvious reason why there were so few people is that it was the night before the first day of school so my priority was with my kids and making sure they are ready, ON TIME and present at school.
It didn't help that the item was so late on the agenda and Armas would not allow the order to change to accommodate the most controversial item first. Again, Armas is manipulating the meeting by controlling the agenda and clock, cutting off people and generally pushing those with any comments he doesn't agree with to curtail their comments mid-sentence.

If you attend or watch the School Board meetings, the reason Mr. Reynoso needs to interrupt and “pick fights” is because Mr. Armas is constantly trying to push through his agenda without discussions. Mr. Armas also conveniently leaves items off the agenda as Mr. McGee as well as Mr. Reynoso has pointed out and which the HUSD staff does nothing about because Mr. Armas insists on controlling the agenda with just the items he wants covered. Watch Mr. Armas closely during the meetings and you will see him steer the discussion and timing of the votes to favor his position constantly and consistently. What do Ms. Heredia and Ms. Brunner do? They go along for the ride with Mr. Armas. So, you always get a 3-2 vote in favor of what Mr. Armas wants.
Sometimes the only way to break the gridlock is to look past the polite sounding voice to see the actual intent and action and see it for what it is. Mr. Reynoso has done that very effectively since he has gotten Mr. Armas to not seek re-election. Unfortunately, we need Mr. Armas and Ms. Heredia off the board immediately since they have several months in which they can further their own agenda at the expense of both the students and parents of HUSD.

HUSD has long been a culture of CORRUPTION, from the corrupt, incompetent school board (currently Armas, Heredia, and Brunner). . .
. . . to the corrupt (previous Duran-Becnel-Armas (wife) regime), incompetent (current Superintendent) Administration . . .
. . . to the corrupt, powerful HEA, which goes out of its way to keep incompetent/useless teachers employed while allowing newer, competent, energized teachers to be let out the door due to outmoded seniority rules.
The District's low test scores, shoddy education, and dismal school site faciities are the collective result of this long-standing culture of corruption in HUSD.
Reynoso and McGee are trying to shine the light on this corruption, and yet get mocked by posters in this forum.
Our children deserve better than we are currently giving them.
We need a sea change here, a disinfection!!
Out with the ingrained purveyors of this culture of corruption, esp. Armas, Heredia, and Brunner.
They should all resign immediately, and if Brunner doesn't, then I hope that she is successfully recalled.

Too bad there isn't anyone to support Reynoso in his bid to have a vote of no confidence in Jesus Armas. If he could muster 2 more votes then Armas would have to leave his position as President of the BOE and become “just a member”..with no more power than the next trustee. He couldn't control the meeting; couldn't control what goes on the Agenda for board meetings; couldn't command special meetings with the Superintendent and staff; couldn't bully anybody who dared to challenge him. OMG! Armas would be just a little guy(matching his stature) with no power.
Maybe he if that happened he would have to go to some retreat to help him with the onset of dedpress over his loss.

I have been at HHS for a few years now and it has gone down hill, but I have seen Armas with Bullis – they do nothing about his fat ass self. He is locked away in his office- LOOOK at the writing on the wall – Bullis holds on to raising scores, which is what the hard working teachers have done. Bullis takes claim for anything and everything that is good but degrades the staff when something goes wrong. Thanks Heredia for leaving the Principal from hell for us!

The decision not to run for re-election does not end this matter. Both Armas and Heredia need to resign their seats immediately.
Their decision(s) should not put an end to investigating what has really happened since Armas was appointed in 2010. His attempts to manipulate board decisions regarding property issues should not be ignored. He has profited as a consultant or has the potential to profit from sale of surplus property. Both of them have an unusual relationship with the million dollar legal firm that advises the district and that needs to be looked into also.
Jesus Armas has never done anything for altruistic reasons, he always makes sure that he can benefit in some way from anything he does. They both used the sutdents of HUSD to further their own ambitions.

===========================================
Mr. Terry Lee, President
Welcome to Moreau Catholic High School!
Moreau is a college preparatory school with an unparalleled arts program and a variety of co-curricular activities, and has been recognized twice as a Blue Ribbon School of excellence by the U.S. Department of Education. Moreau is proud of its rich history and is committed to outstanding achievement. But it is truly our mission and philosophy that has created Moreau Catholic's excellent reputation in California.
Moreau Catholic High School is dedicated to the legacy and values of the Congregation of Holy Cross and its founder, Blessed Basil Moreau. As a community of faith, we prepare our students through academic, social and spiritual learning experiences that form and transform them as they become responsible citizens of our global community.
Moreau Catholic High School enters into a partnership with each student’s family and provides opportunities and means by which students are guided to higher levels of spiritual, social and academic development. This partnership is enhanced by the spirit, vision and collaboration of the entire school community and the Diocese of Oakland.
As a community of faith, we believe a Holy Cross education is centered on Christian values and adheres to high standards and expectations for individual achievement and social responsibility. We are guided by Jesus Christ to give witness to our faith through lived experiences—prayer, liturgical celebrations, retreats, and community service. These experiences nurture dignity and respect for religious and cultural diversity. A Moreau Catholic High School education facilitates the formation of qualities such as integrity, justice, stewardship, love, compassion, and hope.
This philosophy transforms lives.
We hope that you spend some time getting to know Moreau Catholic High School. In keeping with Father Moreau's words, “the mind will not be cultivated at the expense of the heart.” The school exists so that students become people of values as well as scholars. By cultivating heart and mind, our students become responsible citizens and a positive force for the transformation of our global community.
I invite you to get to know us better. If I may be of any assistance to you, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for visiting us!
Mr. Terry Lee
President

Food for thought regarding Armas and his being on the board at Moreau. Forget the sleezy affair and how it seems to be at cross paths with the teachings of Moreau.
What about the fact that he sits on a board of a school that takes students who would be a part of HUSD, thus costing the district money in ADA funds. It is one thing to privately support a local institution, but it is another to support the loss of ADA funding to a district where he was elected to the Board of Education. I don't imagine that it is a “legal” problem for him but it sure seems like an ethical conflict. But then, so far Armas doesn't seem to be concerned about ethical behavior.

Hello 2:03, I am a teacher at a school close to HEA and the times when I had visited the union office I saw Lisa Brunner there talking to HEA officials. So there is a bit of credence on the claims of whether Heredia was promised incentives for her vote to bring Bullis back to Hayward High. It might be that Lisa facilitated the arrangements to reciprocate with Maribel.
If you do not already know my teachers union is contacted constantly by Lisa Brunner. I have always questioned that arrangement of board members coming often to HEA. Corruption might be there as the specter is raised, let's hope it is not.
Tavares thank you so much for exposing these two in their affair and thank you for Board member Dr.Reynoso to have the guts to expose these people in the meeting.
Dr. Reynoso is right as he states the votes are not representing an independent board free of collusion!! Dr Reynoso, if you read this blog, you may not be aware that plenty of us teachers admire you and we are thankful for always trying to save those non-reelects.

I like the part where Reynoso said he did not want to become a dentist because then he be pulling teeth all day long and he feels like a dentist doing business on the school board. Funny as hell. I never heard anyone ask for a contract on a contigency basis in governemnt if the services are so guarenteed and I know that went by alot people but not by me and that was when an atendance technology program was being purchased. i dont think anyone on that board has the business background or education background like Reynoso.

I raised issues about Heredia long before this “relationship” came to light. Calling into question her role as a plaintiff against HUSD while she was a member of the board. She did not feel it was necessary to pull her name from the case and did not see any conflict of interest.

The actions of Heridia and Armas are disgusting to say the least. They are hypocrites in claiming to do what they do for the kids. Makes one wonder who's kids they refer to in saying that?
When a person holds a position in a public office nothing is ever private. Public officials need to lead by example. Just because you are in a position of authority it does not guarantee you respect. Your actions are what earn you respect.
For those that say that the affair between these two adults is a private matter, then you are morally corrupt yourself. There is a whole community affected by this “relationship”. If their judgement was clouded when they entered this “relationship”, then they have very poor judgement and should not be on the board.
No one is perfect but when it comes to personal matters affecting our community, our children' education and future then be ready not just to be judged, but to pay for what you have done.
It's up to the community to get them out, and as member of the community that they “serve” I will make sure to do my part to get them out. Our children have suffered enough at the hands of those that claim to do what they do in their best interest. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!! Time for our community to organize and come together for the good of what matters the most our Children.

If Ms Heredia and Mr Armas are guilty of engaging in an extramarital affair, then I suggest that the their respective families deal with these bedroom issues and let us–the public–deal with boardroom issues. These sexual “sins” are private affairs not public. If these private affairs lead to criminal wrong-doing, like violations of the Brown Act or Sunshine Laws, then let's investigate this by sticking with the relevant facts and not by focusing on the details of their dating or mating practices–which quite frankly “I don't give a damn” about.

It's high time someone pulled the curtain on the shianigans the HUSD Board has been up to. It's been going on for years. Inappropriate behavior, stepping way over the line in terms of micromanaging the District, and getting directly involved in issues like choosing which principals should be retained and which should be dismissed. So very inappropriate – not the job of the School Board. Jesus Armas is a prime example. He is a slimey little worm who is as corrupt as the day is long. One of many examples – voting to approve a motion to provide large retirement-like bonuses to administrators leaving the District. Just so happens his wife, then an HUSD administrator, benefits from this very generous package (in the tens of thousands of dollars!) so she can bail on HUSD to take an administrative position (Dir. of ELL Services)in Mt. Diablo Unified. As ex-City Manager knows about conflict of interest but chose to ignore it rather than recusing himself from the vote. Oh, and the reference to the principal who was allowed to walk after abscondeding with $10 K from the PTA and without charges being theft? Surprise, surprise- she is a friend of the Jesus & his wife. She was in town recently and Armas' wife sent out an email to administrators inviting them to Happy Hour since their “old friend” was in town. Pitiful. Just pitiful.

Tavares good tip on this meeting for the Hayward school board. These are better than the Hayward city council.
Oh my god I just lost my eyesight by trying to imagine Maribele Heredia with Jesus Armas and those crotch-less panties. Ugh..it burns..it burns I tell you. Now I can't get that that sight out of my head. Time to call Greg Jones and Ana May for advice.
I heard Jesus Armas saying “It is important to focus on the children.”
I am having to keep on reading this because it is so sad for all of Hayward schools and sad for the families of these two sleazy bags.
“It is important to focus on the children.” my ass, Jesus Armas and your mistress Maribele Heredia you people are sick puppies. Your actions tell us that it is all about your “love” for each other.

It is about time an individual got bold enough to bring this horrible issue to light. What will be the breaking point of Hayward parents? The district and the board needs to stop disrespecting the families of Hayward and start showing us that the students are the focus.

He is very smart and eloquent he did good tonight like always.
I don't think Reynoso is running again see his website http://www.luisreynoso.com It sounds like a farewell speech. Finally we get someone good then they leave.
His comments for an investigation are a good idea to look into Jeus Armas and Maribel Heredia. They are just like Anna May and Greg Jones just as sleazy.

For those of you who are questioning violations of the Brown Act, let me try to explain what may and probably has happened. If during one of their times together Armas and Heridia discuss an item relating to HUSD, be it an agenda item; a possible agenda item; an employee concern; a parent concern;etc and then unbeknownst to one or the other contact is made by one of them with another board member and that subject is discussed the Brown Act has been violated. Three members, a majority, have now discussed the issue outside of a board meeting and that is considered a serial meeting.
I do not believe that Mr. Tavares implied that there was anything intentional or nefarious in these possible violations…he was simply stating how easy it would be to have it happen when two board members have more than just a working relationship.
I hope that this helps you all to understand.

Hello Mr Tavares. Thank you for your work on behalf of the community. Your thoughts and comments are usually right on the money, but I'm concerned about this current story. You point out that these two board members may be in violation of the Brown Act and the state's Sunshine Laws, but you do not offer specific evidence to support your argument. These violations are serious. I browsed both the Act the the Sunshine Laws and I couldn't find anything there to make a big deal about…of course I did not do an in-depth reading (they're kinda boring to read). Please provide us–the readers–with the sections of these laws that you feel may have been violated. If you fail to do so, then, I'm afraid your comments will be reduced to nothing more than shameful tabloid material….and–based on your past work– I know you can do much better than this.

Hate to burst your bubble re: the Brown Act. Granted, I'm no lawyer, but it looks like there's a snowball's chance in hell that this would-be romantic duo has violated the Brown Act. I just looked it up on-line. This act protects the public against secret meetings attended by the majority of the board and against secret communications between the majority of the board. This would-be romantic duo hardly constitutes a quorum. I thought we might be able to bust them under a Brown Act section called “Serial Meetings,” but alas, my efforts failed: It seems that a serial meeting occurs only when communication between two board members is used to eventually engage a majority of the board. Unfortunately this does not seem to be the case….Well, I've spent way too much time on yet another political “novela” hopefully, so you won't have to. Let's stop wasting so much time, energy on this garbage…Our district is a mess, our state–heck our country–is falling apart economically and investing time and energy in a supposed extramarital affair between to locally elected officials is hardly what will move us forward. Let's invest our time on the real issues and leave the “novelas” to the “comadres.”

All personal stuff aside, Mr. Armas and Ms. Heredia, both who claim to have the best interests of children as their motivating force, are hypocrits and need to leave office immediately. Many in this community have had serious questions regarding many of Mr. Armas and his using HUSD for personal gain. As for Ms. Heredia, who remains a plaintiff on a suit against HUSD, isn't that a conflict of inerest? Of course if you ask the million dollar lawyers for HUSD, there is always a way to get around the law..who cares about ethics or morality???
Armas must forget running for school board and so should Heredia.
