Dearest Community Members,

​

I am honored to announce my candidacy for the BHUSD School Board in the upcoming November 2024 General Election. As an experienced estate planning attorney, I bring a comprehensive understanding of fiduciary responsibility and financial stewardship—essential qualities for guiding our district’s governance effectively.

​

My passion for educational excellence drives me to ensure that every student in our district receives a top-tier education. We must continue to enhance our district's programs and facilities while maintaining a strong focus on academic excellence and student well-being.​ I will also work to keep us focused on the completion of the renovations to Beverly Hills High School, understanding that meeting deadlines and maintaining transparency serves all members of the community.

​

As a proud alumna of Hawthorne Elementary School and BHHS, and now parent of El Rodeo Elementary School, I am dedicated to preserving and enhancing the legacy of educational excellence that Beverly Hills has always been known for. My passion for the District grew further this past year with my involvement with the Beverly Hills Education Foundation.

 

Together with the BHEF Board leadership team, I spearheaded efforts to reintroduce the Foundation to our community and regrow its purpose, securing critical resources to support our educational initiatives.

 

I am committed to fostering an environment where every student has the opportunity to thrive. I look forward to earning your support and working together to ensure the continued success and growth of BHUSD.

 

Please stay tuned for more updates on my campaign and platform as we approach the election.

 

Also, I would love to hear from each of you directly. My email is dela@dela4bhusd.com and my phone number is 323.379.5079.

Warm regards,
