Superintendent talks about ‘State of the District’

Superintendent Cindy Marten talked about Tuesday's State of the District event, changes in the way students are tested and other issues as Serra High School Senior Class President Diego Schoenfeld joined her for two appearances on local morning news shows on Friday, Oct. 25.

"We're celebrating all that is good about public education," said Marten. "Diego is certainly a great example of that."

Marten appearances on the Fox 5 Morning News and KUSI's Good Morning San Diego are part of her continuing effort to meet with San Diegans and continue to foster a dialogue about our schools. Marten has also appeared on NBC 7 News Today, San Diego 6 in the Morning, KPBS-FM Midday and UT-TV's Roger Hedgecock Show in extended interviews such as those conducted on Friday.

"I really want to thank all the San Diego media for giving us this time to have an ongoing discussion about San Diego Unified and education," she said. "I try to always bring along one of my bosses, the students, to give a different perspective on what we're talking about."
