Superintendent’s Ouster

I am deeply concerned about the reaction of our community over the recent Somis Union Elementary School District’s decision not to renew the contract of Dale Forgey, our principal/superintendent.

Due to current laws of confidentiality, the board has been unable to make public the information which is behind the decision.

Until Mr. Forgey signs a release of information, we must be patient and not prejudge the board’s decision.

We need more information before we can know if the decision is appropriate.

We must put the best interests of our children first.

EVELYN CATANO, Somis
