Carmel Valley’s Ty Humes, a district parent and former president of the Del Mar Schools Education Foundation, was appointed the new Area 5 trustee of the San Dieguito Union High School District on April 22.
In a meeting that stretched for over six hours, the board interviewed seven candidates for the vacant board seat including Humes, Jeffrey Adler, Julie Bronstein, Alan Kholos, David Snodgrass, Vic Wintriss and Lea Wolf.
“This is the toughest decision we’ve ever had,” said President Mo Muir. “We were so lucky we had so many people who were so qualified.”

A group of students protested in front of the San Dieguito Union High School District office on April 11 for their voices and experiences to be heard about issues with discrimination they face at school. In their third demonstration since last August, protestors held signs that read messages such as “No one is free when others are oppressed” and “All students deserve to feel safe”.
The students are asking for diversity training for board members, administration and staff; a more diverse curriculum; and establishing a districtwide equity committee that includes BIPOC and LGBTQ+ students, teachers and representatives from advocacy organizations to have honest discussions on diversity and inclusion.
