San Diego Board Terminates Superintendent Jackson
News summary

The San Diego Unified School District Board of Education has terminated Superintendent Lamont Jackson following an independent investigation that substantiated allegations of sexual misconduct involving two former employees. The investigation, conducted by Sanchez & Amador, revealed that Jackson engaged in unwelcome, sex-based behavior and other offensive conduct, although there was insufficient evidence that terminations or promotions were tied to these actions. The board, citing the credibility of the allegations, unanimously voted for his dismissal, and Jackson will receive a six-month severance package. Deputy Superintendent Fabiola Bagula has been appointed as acting superintendent. The district has faced recent scrutiny over its handling of sexual misconduct cases, as highlighted by a recent U.S. Department of Education report.
