Back to School Means Back to Brainwashing - Mike Arata
August 9 | 6:00pm-8:30pm | RSVP Deadline August 2*
Back to School - Back to Indoctrination Camp
Mike Arata is a local resident who cares deeply for our children and community. Graduating from the University of Cincinnati with high honors, he taught high school chemistry and coached swimming for twenty years in the Cincinnati area, producing multiple statewide team championships in both disciplines. He became a political activist in 1981 after observing the violent behavior of teachers who went on strike in his district.
Mike arrived in California in 1989 to become the Head Age Group Coach at world-renowned Santa Clara Swim Club. As a result of his leadership, three Far Western Regional team championships in the three seasons were achieved. In 1991, he left academia to work in industrial water treatment, eventually serving some of the Bay Area’s largest enterprises.
Supporting virtuous conservative values and being community centric never left Mike. Recently, Mike has been leading efforts to combat the "woke" agenda of the San Ramon Valley School District.
