4/27/2026 - TRUSD Virtual Special Board Meeting

The Twin Rivers Unified School District held a virtual special board meeting on April 27, 2026, primarily focused on advancing the superintendent search process. Consultants from McPherson & Jacob presented a draft superintendent position profile and criteria, seeking board input to finalize the document for publication and candidate recruitment. The board discussed key qualifications, including leadership in equity, fiscal management, labor relations, and student-centered approaches, with emphasis on maintaining fiscal sustainability and addressing district-specific challenges such as charter school dynamics and enrollment trends. The board debated required versus preferred qualifications, ultimately favoring a master's degree as required and doctoral degree as preferred, with a preference for a valid California administrative credential but not as a strict requirement to avoid limiting the candidate pool. The meeting also covered community engagement efforts, including multilingual surveys and upcoming public input sessions. No contract awards or procurement decisions were made during this meeting.
