Douglas agrees to keep his role as Interim Superintendent of San Dieguito.

Tina Douglas will continue as Interim Superintendent of the San Dieguito Union High School District Council after the board rescinded its consent to her resignation at a special meeting on January 10.

Douglas resigned in December. According to a press release, during a private meeting, the board of directors requested and Douglas agreed to continue in her current position until June 30, as originally planned. Then the board unanimously decided to reinstate her at work.

“The Board is united in its support for Ms. Douglas and believes she will provide stability as the critical search for a permanent superintendent is ongoing,” President Rimga Viscanta said in a press release.

Prior to her December resignation, Douglas expressed concerns about her ability to serve as interim superintendent and fulfill her duties as assistant superintendent for business services. The board agreed to provide Douglas with additional support, including resources to lead the business services division.

While agreeing to continue her role, Douglas stated that she did so to create a familiar face during the transition.

“I continue to believe this is best for us as it provides much-needed stability for our students, staff and community,” Douglas said in a press release. “I am grateful for the board’s renewed commitment and look forward to serving as the leadership team.”

According to the press release, the board is “committed to working together to create formal protocols and implement better and more efficient management practices.” On January 11, board members held a management workshop to guide their work forward – their most important task for the coming year will be laying the groundwork for a permanent superintendent.

A request for proposals for a search management firm to lead the San Dieguito search was sent last month. Learn more about superintendent search at sduhsd.net/Our-District/Superintendent-Search-2023/.
