San Benito superintendent working to move district forward

SAN BENITO — When he first arrived here, Superintendent Dr. Adrian Vega’s mission was clear.

It was to move the district forward in a positive and productive way.

Just recently, Vega has surpassed 100 days in office. A feat celebrated at the district level.

“I am grateful for the opportunity that I have been given by the board to serve this great district,” Vega said.

“Working together with our school district staff, our students, our parents, and community and business members has been an exciting time.”

Since his arrival, Vega has participated in many district and community events.

During the past 100 days, he has regularly visited classrooms and campuses throughout the district.

The majority of the work with members of his leadership team has involved successfully launching the district’s five-year strategic plan, known as the “Re-Imagine 2021” Campaign.

First, Vega met with all campuses and departmental staff to obtain feedback on the state of the district. He polled teachers, parents, and staff to gain a better understanding of what works and what doesn’t.

Vega and members of his leadership team have also set time aside to take part in the board-approved efficiency

audit and curriculum audit.

“We are looking forward to completing our work on the district’s strategic plan,” Vega said.

“Regarding work on the audits, the audit teams will soon be completing their studies. This will provide us a better understanding of where we are as a district.”
