Running for Glendale Elementary School Board.
Monica is a proud seventh generation Arizonan who grew up in Glendale, Arizona. She attended public school in the Peoria Unified School District, and later attended both Glendale Community College and Phoenix College where she studied Criminal Justice and Paralegal Studies.
Raising her children in the Glendale district, she saw the needs of the schools, the teachers and the students and wanted to make a difference not only for her children, but for all children in her community. Being a public servant is a role that Monica takes very seriously. Since being elected to the Glendale Elementary School Board in 2016, Monica’s main focus is making sure all children have access to a quality education, regardless of economic status. She works to ensure every possible resource will be utilized to the fullest potential. In order to achieve that goal, Monica believes that educators are the most important tool to help our children succeed.
