The field of candidates vying for three seats on the Beverly Hills Unified School District board has grown after Board President Dr. Amanda Stern and businessman Russell Stuart filed nomination forms with the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk this week. Attorney Dela Peykar Ronen, who kicked off the race by announcing her candidacy last week, has also filed with the county.
After being elected in December 2020, Stern is the only incumbent currently in the race, and as the current board president, she hopes to build upon the experience she gained over her term to help the board tackle the district’s looming challenges.
