My name is Jim Downs, and I am running for a position on the Ontario-Montclair School Board of Trustees. I am uniquely qualified for this position having served previously for 16 years on this Board from 1989 to 2005. I also served for 15 years elected by my peers to represent our Region 16 to the California School Board Association, and attended and graduated from the premier governance program sponsored by CSBA; Masters in Governance.
During those years, the other Board members and I worked together to meet the challenges of the future. We hired and promoted those persons who were tops in their fields and who would bring credibility to their respective departments. And, above all, we fostered a sense of adventure, and allowed those with ability and an innovative spirit to seek the best instructional tools and utilize them. We always put children first, and asked the driving question in all that we did, which is, of course, does this truly benefit the children of the Ontario-Montclair School District?
As a proven leader with over 16 years of previous Board experience, I am well versed in the requirements of the public school system. As your school board member, I will promote policies that encourage student achievement. This means having safe and comfortable classrooms. This means seeking adequate funding to be able to bring the best and latest technology available for students to use. This means making sure that our teachers are supported in all that they do to insure student learning. This means having students who know that there is zero tolerance for unacceptable behavior, and it means supporting programs which will help kids succeed. This also means making sure that the parents are truly partners in their child's education and shown how to provide a supportive environment to help them succeed.
The task ahead is clear. I believe that as long as the members of the Board work together, they will bring a quality education to the children in OMSD. I will work with the Board and staff to support all of our children and give them the best we can offer. We must allow our children to stretch and reach for their dreams, and, when necessary, we must even help them learn to dream. I would appreciate your vote in November.

I pledge to dedicate myself to bring administrators, teachers, and parents together to focus on common responsibility towards a successful goal of all our children's education. I will utilize my people skills, knowledge, and effective experience to endeavor to create,re-discover and promote resolutions to solve our children's barriers to learning and especially those underserviced and displaced children with Special Educational needs.
I will work tirelessly to help create educational policies that will produce a well rounded education for all our children's intellectual development, instead of being stuck in mire of mechanical like teaching to satisfy standard tests that are not subjective assessments of any child natural abilities. Any and all schools should foster an exhilarating atmosphere for learning to each and all children. All the while, retaining the effectiveness of creativity of building blocks of sound teaching for our children's future! The preparation for higher learning starts from early elementary progressive stages of education.
Its not a secret that our Middle school dismissal hours ends at 2:30 P.M. And its no surprise most parent working hours end in most cases at 5:00 p.m. That added with commute time creates a vacuum of potential unsupervised Middle school age children where unnecessary trouble and problems occur. This will be an area of corrective challenge for me to help benefit everyone and especially for concerned parents. I also want to work to restore fair- common- sense compensatory rewards to Classified Employees for their unrecognized dedication and hard work.
I solemnly vow to you, the parents of Ontario-Montclair District,that I will always place the best and foremost interest of students and parents First!

David Campio has been a life long resident of Ontario and he is proud to be a product of the Ontario Montclair School District. He graduated from Chaffey High School, attended Chaffey College, and received his Masters degree from UCLA. David currently coordinates instructional programs and community outreach at Chaffey College. He understands first hand what it takes to help students to be successful and believes that programs designed to motivate students and to assist families must begin early on.
As a member of the Strategic Planning Committee for both the Ontario Montclair School District and the Montclair Community Collaborative, David already has extensive knowledge of educational programming and some of the challenges the district will face over the next few years.
David's ability to inspire students and to work collaboratively with parents, educational partners, and the business community has earned him several awards for his leadership including the Edison International Award for Excellence in K-12 Education, and the San Bernardino County Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Commission Award. The Online to College program, which he directs, has also received special recognition by Soroptimist International of Montclair/Inland Valley. The program has had a positive impact on student performance, and student's attitudes toward school. Students who participate in this program have a higher GPA, take more college preparatory courses, and attend college at a higher rate than the students who have not been exposed to the program. David promotes an "I can succeed" attitude in students, and provides guidance to families about available financial support for higher education. Students learn about what they need to do to make their dreams come true and the program provides them with incentives and support along the way. David's vision, dedication, and enthusiasm have been essential to the significant success of the program.
In his spare time, David operates an art studio in Ontario. The studio, "Clay to Concrete", also serves as a cultural center and documents historical uses of clay and the distinctive contributions of diverse groups to the creation of Southern California pottery. As a school board member, David will protect the interest of the community through quality education that provides guidance to families and give children the direction they need to succeed in school and life.
