Candidate for the Office of: Board Member, Bear Valley Unified School District
Name: Randall Putz
Age: 45
Occupation: Business Owner/Parent

“As a parent of two Big Bear High School students, I have witnessed first-hand the impact dedicated educators can have on children, our community, and our future. I am proud of the vital role our distinguished schools play in our very special community, and I passionately support our schools’ success.

This passion for quality education, combined with my extensive real-world experience, uniquely qualifies me to serve on our School Board. My business skills, parenting, and volunteerism all provide a fresh and well-rounded perspective that I believe benefits our School District.

As a School Board member, I best represent the interests of our community by listening and being accessible to all parents, educators, and residents, by ensuring responsible use of our tax dollars, and by supporting actions that put the needs of our children first.

I appreciate your vote, your trust, and your supporting our schools’ success.”
