A.D. Ibarra -San Antonio, TX

Preliminary reports from the Alamo City have cited the resignation of former EPISD Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction Becky Robinson from her position as Superintendent of the South San ISD effective immediately Thursday morning. The educator whose reputation of objectivity and effectiveness as an instructional leader capable of analyzing a school's needs and a district's points of academic objectives that require focus, apparently ran into opposition when attempting to hire key staff to address SSISD's needs in the coming school year. Five other top-level administrators are following suit and have left the district to fend for itself in terms of improving state test scores and achieving required accountability measures by the state. According to an article in the San Antonio Express-News, Ramiro Nava, South San's Executive Director of Curriculum, will be the interim superintendent. Robinson left the EPISD to take the superintendent's job at South San which in her letter of resignation she stated "Have been personally rewarding."
