Vote for experienced educator

My name is Richard Asadoorian and I am one of two candidates for the Contra Costa Board of Education Trustee Area 4. This area covers a great portion of Antioch (where I live), Pittsburg, San Ramon (where my opponent resides), Danville, parts of Walnut Creek and Clayton.

I am a retired school administrator. My experience in education includes teaching in elementary, middle and high school.  I have been a middle and high school counselor, a high school activities director and an alternative high school principal. Upon retirement, I was a director for two years of a summer youth employment program and served on two school board finance committees. Serving my country, I hold an honorable discharge from the U.S. Army and U.S. Coast Guard. For three years I was a domestic violence counselor. My wife is a elementary school teacher.

If elected, my priorities are student and parent needs, fiscal oversight and protection of the music and arts programs. I also believe that Special Education, Court Schools and Regional Occupation Programs are vital to our support.
