The Oakland Unified School District has reached a voluntary separation agreement with Superintendent Dr. Kyla Johnson-Trammell, following concerns raised by board member Mike Hutchinson regarding closed-door discussions. Hutchinson claims actions were discussed to seek a new superintendent and negotiate a payout for Johnson-Trammell, who is under contract until 2027. The decision to force her out has caused concern about the lack of a replacement plan. School Board President Jennifer Brouhard countered these claims, emphasizing the need for accurate information to avoid chaos within the district.
My big concern for (Wednesday) night's meeting is the school board majority is going to finish the work that they have started, out of the blue, over the last month, and force our Superintendent Dr. Kyla Johnson-Trammell, out of office at the end of June.
And this is really going to leave the district is a difficult situation of trying to replace our long-tenured superintendent in two months.
This wrong information creates chaos and uncertainty for our staff, students, and families. We, both the board and the media, should not be a part of promoting this chaos.
