From the meeting
The superintendent reported the hiring of Jessica Pena as district-wide social worker, effective August 31, 2026, and the board authorization item reflected that appointment at this meeting. This is a personnel move, but it also signals student support priorities and a new decision maker inside the district. The role may influence future student services, intervention planning, and related vendor needs.
