Support Peter Martinez for IVC Board Trustee Area 3

Hello friends and neighbors, I would like to introduce myself and share why I'm running for IVC Board Trustee Area 3 to represent all students in Imperial County.

My name is Peter Martinez, I am a native of Imperial County and a lifelong resident. I'm a father of two successfully educated daughters and a grandfather of a 1-year-old precious child. I am the first generation of a working migrant farming family. My commitment to our community has driven my journey from a migrant to academia.

Over 28 years, I have dedicated my professional career to guiding young adults towards higher education and career pathways.

My main focus is to increase graduation rates, work with feeder schools, strengthen career technical education programs, improve retention and enrollment, maintain accreditation status, and advance an annual review of a robust economic workforce and development platform, all for the betterment of our communities.

Thank you, and I appreciate your consideration on November 5th by voting for me on election day.

Peter
