Community Going places with the Mayor In honor of Read Across America, Chandler Mayor Jay Tibshraeny took a little


time off from his staff memos and agenda items to read to fourth graders earlier this month. He read the Dr. Seuss classic “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!” to an assem- bly at Hull Elementary and at Hancock Elementary School. He followed the readings by chatting with the classes about the great places


education can take them, including the position of Chandler Mayor. Mayor Tibshraeny is a native of the city and graduated from Chandler High School. Tibshraeny has a lifetime of public service in the East Valley. In addition to his
