Statement of VICTOR M. REID, III, Candidate for Governing Board Member Occupation: Investment Manager/Securities Age: 51 Education and Qualifications: I have three daughters: one has been through the Los Altos Elementary School District and is currently a senior at the high school; one is in the sixth grade at Almond School; and the youngest attends kindergarten at Almond School. Because of this, I feel I have a sense of where the LASD has been and where we need to go and I want to be a part of this process. The problems created as a result of the increase in student population at our schools and the demand for more classrooms to accommodate smaller sized classes need to be addressed. I am currently the treasurer and have been a board member of the Los Altos Educational Foundation since 1994. I have been an active PTA member for over eleven years; am a past president of the Almond Site Council, and past Egan parent and PTA member.
