Your guide to the LAUSD District 3 school board race: Chang vs. Schmerelson

The election for a west San Fernando Valley seat on the Los Angeles Unified School District Board of Education pits two-term incumbent Scott Schmerelson, a retired principal, against middle school math teacher Dan Chang, who has served behind the scenes in political and education leadership roles.

The seven-member school board sets policy for the nation’s second-largest school district, which educates about 420,000 students and employs some 74,000 teachers, administrators and other staff. The school board is accountable for the district’s $18.4-billion budget. Members also hire and evaluate the superintendent.

in the LAist web site. Lots of good info there. I like to see who is endorsing each candidate too. (I've been getting all those obnoxious mailers in my mail box. I swear I get one daily from Dan Chang's campaign.)

This Voter Game Plan guide is great:
