Dear DJUSD Family and Friends, 

As the year winds down, I would like to share important information with you. 

My Departure and Welcoming a New Superintendent

As many of you already know, I recently accepted the position of superintendent to the Ontario-Montclair School District and will resign effective July 1.  While I am very saddened to leave my DJUSD colleagues and this outstanding community, this move allows me to be close to family and to return to my roots in southern California.

I am pleased to announce the Board of Education unanimously approved to offer the job of superintendent of the Davis Joint Unified School District toWinfred Roberson.  Mr. Roberson has successfully served as the Davis High School principal during this last school year.  His exemplary leadership will continue moving the Davis School District in a positive direction and support the success of each DJUSD student.  

2010-11 Budget Outlook Improves

As you know, the district was facing the elimination of 88.3 full-time positions for a total budget reduction of $5.6 million.  Employee agreements decreased that amount by $1.178 million.   Community donations, in the form of a $1.4 million grant from the Davis Schools Foundation, further closed the gap.  As a result, the district was also be able to recover $410,000 in class size reduction penalties from the state which would have been lost due to increased class size. Together, these contributions allow us to retain 48.3 full-time positions for one more year.
