The race
Fowler Elementary School District voters elect two members to four-year terms on November 3, 2026. Vote for up to two. Fowler has a three-member board, so this election decides two of the three seats. Three candidates are running, including both incumbents whose seats are up.
The certified roster is: Lisa Perez (incumbent), Francisca Montoya (incumbent), and Sylvia Miller.

Francisca Montoya (incumbent). A sitting board member seeking re-election, per the Superintendent's certified list. No occupation, published platform or board record for Montoya was sourced in this pass.
Pros: Incumbent experience. Cons: No checkable record in front of voters in our sourcing.

Pros: She filed, giving voters a genuine choice for two of three seats. Cons: No sourced record of any kind in this pass.
OUR CALL
Our call: insufficient record — no endorsement. What would earn one here: any candidate's published platform, occupation or board record. In a three-member-board district, two seats are a working majority — voters deserve more than a roster, and candidates who publish one will get a fresh look from us.
