School Board President and Beverly High Alumna, Nooshin Meshkaty, has officially announced that she is running for re-election to the Beverly Hills Board of Education. Meshkaty states: “I am grateful for the public’s trust and look forward to continuing the important work of ensuring that our district remains fiscally sound and our children receive a world class, top-rated education”

Nooshin has served this community for over 18 years. "I am proud of my record of accomplishments over the last four years. We have successfully managed our Measure K bond program on time and under budget. Academic rigor, curricular offerings and instructional quality have been significantly enhanced. My leadership has helped to bring our schools the largest increase in our Joint Powers Agreement with the City in history. Our teachers have received substantial raises and we enjoy the most supportive relationship with the City of Beverly Hills in recent memory."

Former School Board President Myra Lurie, who serves as one of Meshkaty’s Honorary Campaign Chairs, states, “... Nooshin understands business, finance, accountability, security, and information technology. She is a passionate advocate for children, an experienced professional and a dynamic leader who we can count on.”

Please join the conversation and contact me at any time with your thoughts.”
