Every kid in Moreno Valley deserves a seat at the table.
I'm Jennifer Grisham — a 40-year Moreno Valley resident, an MVUSD graduate, and the parent of three MVUSD students. I've spent over a decade volunteering in our schools, and eleven years living what works and what doesn't for our kids, firsthand. I'm asking for your vote to bring needed change to our classrooms.
What this campaign is about
I love our students, and we need to do better for them. My candidacy is focused on three points.
-
Address bullying
Too many students still dread unsupervised time at school, or the bus ride home. I'll push for clear reporting systems, accountability for repeat incidents, and training that helps staff intervene early.
-
Pull back on classroom apps
Every new app promises engagement, but too often it's nothing more than data collection and ineffective learning, leading to kids who can't sit with a book or a hard problem anymore. I'll advocate for fewer, better-vetted digital tools and more time for direct instruction and hands-on learning.
-
Measure what matters
State testing shouldn't define our schools. I want our district to prioritize curiosity, critical thinking, and well-rounded educational experiences — not scores on a spreadsheet.
Why Jennifer is running
I don't get my information just from district reports and administrators. I know what's really happening because my family has lived it — eleven years of having kids in MVUSD schools, and eleven years of being involved parents and volunteers. — Jennifer Grisham
