The Temecula Valley Unified School District (TVUSD) School Board's September performance has left parents, educators, and community members frustrated and disheartened. According to the latest OneTVPAC report card, only one trustee received a grade above a B, while three trustees earned a failing grade — a stark reflection of the ongoing dysfunction plaguing the board.

The One Temecula Valley Political Action Committee (PAC) is sounding the alarm over potential Brown Act violations and the Temecula Valley Unified School District’s (TVUSD) proposed engagement with Murrieta-based law firm Advocates for Faith and Freedom (AFF). A special board meeting to consider the agreement is scheduled for Tuesday, September 17.
1TVPAC is encouraging members of the community to attend the 8:45 a.m. meeting to express concern.

The board voted against a proposed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Riverside University Health System — Behavioral Health, which would have provided free, family-consented mental health and substance abuse services to adolescents. This was not a vote grounded in facts or a thoughtful debate about best practices — it was a politically charged rejection that will have real consequences for students who are struggling.

It is yet another chapter in the long, sordid saga that is Jen Wiersma’s making and is designed to only benefit Jen Wiersma.

Students be damned. 

Wiersma’s behavior has paralyzed the board and fractured the community. Board meetings have devolved into spectacles, dominated by angry partisans and culture war rhetoric.
