## Resource

Chancellor Carole Goldsmith is stepping down in September after a turbulent tenure marked by a union’s unanimous no-confidence vote, faculty claims of retaliation and nepotism, and a dismissed lawsuit alleging abuse of power. Despite the backlash, Goldsmith insists her leadership is measured by student outcomes, not controversy, and will continue working until her retirement. The board met in secret without announcing next steps, while administrators received a nearly $9,000 raise. The district now seeks a new chancellor focused on AI, antiracist education, and equity — as Goldsmith remains committed to finishing her term.
