The Campbell Union School District Governing Board has elected new officers for the 2002 calendar year. Nejleh Abed was elected as the board's president; Susan Mayer is the vice president; and Janet Johnson is the board clerk.

Nejleh, a practicing dentist in San Jose, recently earned a Governance certificate--a two-year training program for elected board members that focuses on budgets, curriculum and personnel--from the California School Board Association. Her children attend Campbell schools.
Mayer, a full-time mother, was appointed to the board in 1999 and elected in November 2000 to a four-year term. She has also completed a master's degree in the governance certificate program.
Johnson, a program coordinator with Health Trust, was elected a trustee in 1996 and re-elected in 2000. She recently completed San Jose State University's Nonprofit Management certificate program.
