EDGEWOOD ISD
An Edgewood ISD trustee who has been at odds with his colleagues appears to have gained an ally on the board.
20-year-old trustee Michael Valdez endorsed a slate of three candidates as change agents in Tuesday’s election. One member of the slate, Sergio Delgado Jr, defeated incumbent Richard Santoyo.
Edgewood ISD voters also re-elected Board President Martha Castilla and chose former San Antonio Police Department employee Rudy Lopez for an open seat on the board.
Valdez was censored by the Edgewood school board in January for what they described as disrespectful conduct. He adamantly opposed the board’s decision to close schools last year.
