(SAN BERNARDINO, Calif.) John Peukert, the San Bernardino City Unified School District assistant superintendent for facilities and operations, has joined the San Bernardino Corps Salvation Army advisory board.
“I wanted to give my time to an organization that is doing so much in the community to bless others,” he said.
Peukert is a 27-year employee of San Bernardino City Unified School District, starting there in 1982 as its director of nutrition services. He has lived in Rialto for 34 years.
