“It makes sense for our students, families, teachers and staff to make this change in May,” said a statement from Juneau in the release. “I’m so proud of what we’ve accomplished in the past few years and especially during this difficult year of so many adjustments due to the COVID pandemic.”
Seattle School Board president Chandra Hampson said the decision was “amiable” and “mutual.”
“There’s no juicy story,” said Hampson. “I wish Denise all the best.”
Talks around an earlier leadership transition began three weeks ago, according to Hampson. The earlier departure will allow Jones to have a more direct role in planning for summer school and fall, she said.
