What happened

The board approved Deputy Superintendent Eddie DeLazo’s multi-year employment agreement, appointing him superintendent effective January 1, 2027. The agreement sets a $321,000 annual base salary and a $500 monthly automobile allowance.

Why it matters to families

This is a districtwide leadership transition: DeLazo will take over from Superintendent Maurice Geisel at the start of 2027, with the board citing continuity through a period of continuing district challenges.

The evidence

In the September 24, 2026 meeting transcript, the board approved DeLazo’s superintendent employment agreement by a 4–0 roll-call vote, with one member absent. The agreement terms presented publicly included an annual base salary of $321,000 and a $500 monthly automobile allowance. (Transcript around 01:30; document is machine-generated.)
