A San Joaquin County grand jury report blasted the Stockton Unified School District’s Board of Trustees for inappropriate behavior and misconduct, but the board does not have to implement any of the recommendations.
The 33-page report released on Wednesday found the board lacks transparency and accessibility, violates the Brown Act, ignores civil, behavioral norms and is the key reason for the district’s high superintendent turnover rate, among many other findings of misconduct.
Gary Cooper, foreperson of the 2020-21 San Joaquin County civil grand jury, said jurors began investigating the school district after numerous complaints and media evidence of inappropriate conduct.

STOCKTON, Calif. The Stockton Unified School District (SUSD) Board of Trustees has come under fire after a report from a San Joaquin County civil grand jury cites a failure in leadership.

A San Joaquin County civil grand jury has found the Stockton Unified School District Board of Trustees have failed as district leaders and will likely continue to do so.
A scathing 33-page report released by the 2020-21 grand jury says Stockton Unified trustees are the direct reason for what s been called the district s revolving door of superintendents.
Stockton Unified has had 14 interim and permanent superintendents in just over 30 years, several of which in recent years have left before fulfilling their contracts.
The report shows that nearly all assumed the superintendent role from 2005 to 2021, with only six having been permanent and average tenure lasting about 19 months. The district has changed leadership three times in the past year alone.
