Election Result- CCEA’s Vellardita Unplugged

Six educators got together and shared their thoughts about what kind of leadership our school district needs moving forward. They represent a cross section of front line educators and they leave nothing on the table in terms of their opinions.

We’re back! In this episode of the CCEA Podcast, we dive deep into CCSD Superintendent Dr. Jara’s recent letter of resignation and what it could mean for the future of the district. Dr. Jara’s proposed ‘buy-out’ would not only send the Superintendent away with half a million dollars, it would also require the installation of his now deputy, Dr. Brenda Larsen Mitchell, as the district’s new superintendent. Join our host, CCEA Executive Board Member Kristan Nigro, in conversation with CCEA’s Executive Director John Vellardita, and President Marie Neisess, as they discuss the flaws in Dr. Jara’s proposal and the major controversies driving his resignation.
