The district made several notable recognitions during Tuesday night's School Board meeting, including outgoing Board of Education Member Carol Cooper, Dist. 5. Board members thanked Ms. Cooper for her dedication and leadership on the board, keeping the goals of the district in the forefront. “You lead with an open mind and an open heart,” said Vice President Cort, who added that it was a pleasure serving with Cooper. Superintendent Ruiz recalled the support he received from Ms. Cooper when he arrived at the district, ensuring that the district always kept the needs of students first. Mr. Frank, who replaced Cooper on the dais, recalled the close elections between the two, and how they grew to have tremendous respect for one another. President Tenorio, who joined the board alongside Cooper in 2020, recalled her time with Cooper during a tumultuous time on the board – coming out of a ransomware attack, a global pandemic and personal tragedy after the sudden loss of late superintendent Karen Trujillo. She applauded her hard work to make the district the best environment for students. Ms. Cooper addressed the board following a standing ovation, noting that “Of all the people I’ve been around – the caring and talented people I’ve been around – and the joy of putting kids first has been an honor. I’m so excited for our school district (with) Mr. Ruiz. I encourage us as a community to help our students focus on great outcomes that we know are possible. Every single student has purpose, and a need for education to be able to fulfill their purpose in life.”
