Joel J. Knox: Josh Pedrozo understands sacrifice and will make them for Merced
I was out the other day and ran into Josh Pedrozo, who was buying school supplies. It reminded me about what Vice President Joe Biden said when he spoke at the convention: “The teachers ... who take money out of their own pockets to buy pencils and notebooks for their students who can’t afford them. Why? Because being a teacher is not what they do, it is who they are. You know what I know, for real. These are the people that are the heart and soul of this country.”
Not only is Josh Pedrozo a committed Merced City Council member, but he is a dedicated high school teacher. He always goes above and beyond to serve his students and will do the same for our city as its next mayor.
