Highlight for This Elected Official - and Proud Mom

My son, Dr. James Finlay, was elected to the Duarte School Board on November 4, 2020 with the most number of votes. He ran a very professional, clean campaign and along with Ceci Carroll and Jacqueline Ku, was elected to a 4-year term of office serving the citizens of the school district. In December 2020, he asked me to give him the oath of office. It was a real highlight for me, as Mayor Pro Tem of Duarte - and his Mom - to install him. Congratulations, James - a job well done.
