HAYWARD SCHOOL DISTRICT | What would have been unthinkable even just six months ago could soon be fact—fiscal crusader and Hayward school board member Luis Reynoso may be soon ruling the roost and he would like the title of board president to go with it.
Reynoso won re-election last week to the Hayward school board along with newcomers Annette Walker and John Taylor. The three open seats were once thought to be cakewalks for current members Jesus Armas and Maribel Heredia until text messages showing a secret affair between the two led each to pass on re-election this November.
The openings allowed for wide-open race that ultimately could swing the balance of power toward Reynoso, the board’s most consistent voice against the school district’s profligate ways. Walker finished first in the at-large race followed by Taylor and Reynoso. Newcomer Heather Reyes eeked out a surprising fourth place finish over Sara Lamnin, whose quest for public office was again dashed. She was followed by Wandra Williams and a disappointing last-place finish for the Armas-supported Peter Bufete.
Reynoso believes last week’s results show the community supports his platform rooting out wasteful spending and corruption at the school district. “They want to see changes and voters want us to implement them without spending money or changing direction,” said Reynoso. He plans to seek the board’s presidency in the coming months saying he is most experienced on budget issues and board procedures. “We’re the gatekeepers. We need a knowledgeable person to be the president,” he said. “I’m going to try, but I don’t know if I have the votes.”
Reynoso, though, says he is “cautiously optimistic” about the additions of Walker and Taylor, but he’s playing a game of wait-and-see. “We don’t know yet because they don’t have a record. If I delete the campaign rhetoric, then these two might work out. But, I’ll take time to figure it out.”
The current board has been plagued with instability following news of the affair last July with the majority of Armas, Heredia and Lisa Brunner blocking or limiting discussion of an official investigation into the affair and whether it violated the open government laws, including collusion by the two paramours within some of their votes. The majority has also stymied creating specific rules prohibiting such liaisons between members to its 20-year-old board bylaws.
Over the past two years, Reynoso has had only fellow board trustee William McGee as an ally. Some Hayward insiders, however, believe between Walker and Taylor, the most likely third vote will come from Taylor. In fact, Taylor’s comments to The Citizen during the campaign suggested interest in rooting out the school district’s numerous problems and finding solutions along with an antipathy for Armas’s behavior.
Dr. Reynoso is the instrument of change for our children in Hayward schools! The Hayward schools must change by improving test scores and meeting the needs of students and parents. Perhaps the change needs to begin at the district office.

I have been in Hayward for 15 years having moved from Oregon because of job relocation. When I first came here I did not like the schools and still don't.
We need charter schools. I have 4 children in 2 in Hayward charter and 2 in San Lorenzo charter schools and they are much better than what the Hayward schools can provide.
to 12:02, Lisa Bruner, Will Mcgee and John Taylor are all endorsed by the teachers union so they will be controlled on how they vote. A good litmus test will be on how these 3 will vote on charter schools coming up in next board meeting. The teachers union does not like charter schools. The 3 mentioned here on the board will cast a NO vote and that will not be a surprise of course they will give a lame excuse on why they voted NO.
To the parents of HUSD you have not an inkling on how much better charter schools are then what is provided currently. Good luck to all can't wait to move out of here when my last boy graduates.

Please read the editorial in yesterday's Sunday Daily Review/Oakland Tribune regarding what the I bond will actually end up costing HUSD…Because they chose to finance it in some special way the $21million will actually cost $131million to pay off because of defrayed/delayed payments. The arrangements for repay were not and did not have to be disclosed to the voters. Seems to me that this type of an agreement should have been openly explained before it was entered into.
This is just another example of how poorly HUSD is managed by its administration and ultimately the Board of Education. Maybe Dr. Reynoso is correct when he asks questions that seem to upset/anger the administration! Somebody needs to be minding the store!

Sorry, about giving credit to the current board for the initial I Bond votes. I was responding to who has been monitoring, approving and discussing the actual building of the buildings and I believe that included Dr. Reynoso during his first term with Frumkin, Armas replacing Gonzalez, and continued with the election of Brunner and McGee. So you are correct about the initial steps to get it approved by the voters. However those original board members did not remain in place during most of the construction. sorry for the confusion, but I didn't think it warranted the anger of the poster who made the correction.

This comes directly from the site for the I measure.
“On June 3, 2008 our District made history, by passing the first bond measure in Hayward in over 45 years. The final results were 72% “yes” votes.”
According to that date then the board was:
Frumkin, Petersen, Gonzalez, Truhill, Cook
They need to be given recognition for planning the I bond. It was a success.
You need to get your facts straight 9:41am and 4:35pm. Get more acquainted with the facts!

I am a parent of Faithringold and we were at the district ofice complaining about the lack of principal in our school and Reynoso spoke to us. I am very impressed by him how he can be a shark to towards ineficient staff in the district and at the same time treat us parents with the respect and attention we deserve from the school district.

Thank you Mr. Tavares for this article. It truly puts in perspective what is needed for HUSD's children and employees. Please keep up the honest reporting and watching our school district.

Dr. Reynoso is the most qualified person to lead the board during this rebuilding time. He has the knowledge, the fortitude and the will to bring about change that will directly impact the success of children. It is time for politics to take a back seat. Ms. Walker and Mr. Taylor need to spend the next 6 months learning what a board of education really does, how the agenda works, what the Brown Act is about and a multitude of other things about the complicated workings of public education.

If Reynoso is president then finally we will get good honest agendas because the pres still works the agenda with the sup before the meetings.
