“To receive the support of the Educators from the school district that helped shape who I am today is very heartwarming,” said Walter. “I look forward in working with our librarians, educators, and nurses so all students regardless of where they live, have a chance to succeed.”

The Garden Grove Education Association is major addition to Walter’s lead of endorsements from UNITE HERE Local 11, Orange County Employees Association, Classified School Employees Association-Chapter 121 and several local elected officials.
