Have you ever heard the word “Sagebrush?” Do you know what Sagebrush is? Need information about Sagebrush? There is a lot of talk about Sagebrush in the community, but how much of it is relevant information to you? Are you confused by what you are reading in the papers or hearing from people in the community? If you live in this community, you need to be informed even if you don’t have kids in the Glendale Unified School District. The Sagebrush issue affects the entire community of Glendale, La Crescenta and Montrose, not just the students in the Sagebrush area. If you would like to know what’s really going on, you need to ask questions. I encourage you to email any one of the five board of education members or the school superintendent to get more information, make a comment, give an opinion or ask a question: Greg Krikorian at gkrikorian@gusd.net, Christine Walters at cwalters@gusd.net, Armina Gharpetian agharpetian@gusd.net, Nayiri Nahabedian at nnahabedian@gusd.net, Sandy Russell at srussell@gusd.net, and Superintendent Dick Sheehan at dsheehan@gusd.net. You can also log on to www.gusd.net and click on the green board of education tab on the right to link to these email addresses. If you scroll down farther you will find a green tab that says “Sagebrush Information.”
