"I believe the time is right for new leadership in the District," wrote Wayne in a statement posted on SFUSD's website. "From day one, every decision I have made has been to benefit the students, families, and staff of SFUSD, including this one."
"As the District continues to navigate difficult decisions ahead, we need a steady hand on the tiller," said President of the Board of Education Matt Alexander. "I'm thrilled that Dr. Maria Su has agreed to lead SFUSD at this critical juncture."
SFUSD said in a statement Friday, that the resources made available by the mayor under the School Stabilization team would continue to be available to the district. The statement also said, that Su would focus on addressing the District's massive district through structural changes to avoid a state takeover, but acknowledged that school closures and mergers could very well still be possible.
"Moving forward, SFUSD must consider school mergers or closures as a potential strategy to mitigate the impacts of declining enrollment," explained SFUSD's statement. "Declining student enrollment is not unique to San Francisco."
