San Francisco Unified extends search for new leader; one recalled trustee resigns

Days after a vote to recall three trustees from its school board, the San Francisco Unified School District said it plans to extend the search for a new superintendent through the summer as it seeks to replace outgoing Superintendent Vincent Matthews.

Nearly a year ago, Matthews announced plans to retire on July 30, 2021, but then decided to stay for another year in order to assist with the district’s transition from distance learning back to in-person classes.
