March 2025 Message
I notified the Board of Education of my plans to retire at the end of this school year after 36 years of service to the students of Santa Clara County, including 16 years in Sunnyvale and the last five as Superintendent. As I prepare to step away, I am more convinced than ever of the potential of Sunnyvale School District because of the rare combination of the engagement of our families, community support, outstanding, committed employees, and a clear, shared vision for equity and inclusion.

December 2024 Message
As we enter the holiday break, the sort-of “half time” of our school year, I reflect upon how grateful I am for the support the Sunnyvale community shows for our children and their education. The most recent example of our community’s unwavering commitment to the education of our children was the overwhelming support for Measure Y on the November ballot. We are truly humbled and grateful that over 82% of voters chose to invest in the future of our students. This level of support for any measure is truly unheard of.
