""I ran for this office because I cared deeply about our community and the state of the environment in which our students are being prepared for the future," Santos told Boston.com when asked about the separation agreement. "My message resonated with voters.""
"Santos told The Boston Globe, which first reported on the unusual agreement for an incoming elected official, that she resigned after "bogus" accusations about "not handling a student situation properly." She also alleged the investigation and allegations were "retaliation against (her) activism in the teacher's union" and school officials "were just trying to build a case to not renew (her),", per the Globe."
"According to a separation agreement obtained by Boston.com, Santos submitted a resignation letter June 11 and stayed on paid administrative leave until July 31, when her resignation took effect. She also agreed to "neither seek nor accept employment with the city, including the CPS, in the future.""
Luisa de Paula Santos worked as a special education paraeducator at the Fletcher Maynard Academy until July 2025 and then resigned from the district. She submitted a resignation letter on June 11, remained on paid administrative leave through July 31, and signed a separation agreement that bars her from seeking or accepting future employment with the city, including Cambridge Public Schools. Santos was elected to the Cambridge School Committee shortly after leaving her position as part of a union-endorsed shift on the committee. Santos said the resignation followed what she described as "bogus" accusations and alleged retaliation tied to her union activism. The district declined to comment citing personnel matters.
