SAN JOSE, CA – DECEMBER 10: Demonstrators gather in front of the San Jose Unified School District office during a demonstration on Thursday, Dec. 10, 2020, in San Jose, Calif. They urged leaders in the San Jose Unified School District to cease the contracted presence of officers at their campuses.
The district’s elected board — President Wendi Mahaney-Gurahoo, Vice President Teresa Castellanos, Jose Magaña, Carla Collins and Brian Wheatley — did not respond to the Bay Area News Group’s request for comment.Superintendent Nancy Albarrán said the district welcomes “fact-based” and “constructive” feedback but described the report as a failed opportunity to provide such feedback.
The Civil Grand Jury cited other reasons for those departures, including fear of retaliation and speaking up to senior leaders, a tolerance for “verbally abusive behaviors” at the district’s office and a lack of support and respect. The report also said the district does not stock Narcan at schools, naming San Jose Unified as a “distinct outlier” compared to nearly all other major Bay Area school districts.
