New Goleta School Board Member Chosen

The Goleta Union school board appointed Luz Reyes-Martin as interim trustee on Monday. Reyes-Martin, who works for Goleta in the Neighborhood Services Department, will serve on the board until December and is eligible to run for a four-year term in the November election. Superintendent Bill Banning said though there was a “strong pool of candidates,” the board’s decision was unanimous and Reyes-Martin will be sworn in at the next board meeting on April 9.
