Santa Fe Public Schools have selected an interim Superintendent following the announcement that current superintendent Joel Boyd will be stepping down. SFPS’ pick? Dr. Veronica Garcia, who currently serves as Executive Director for the advocacy group New Mexico Voices For Children.
Dr. Garcia starts the job August 15. I caught up with Garcia as she was driving from Albuquerque, where Voices For Children is headquartered, to Santa Fe, for a meeting. I asked Garcia if she’ll be maintaining any official connection with New Mexico Voices for Children as she assumes the post of Interim Superintendent with Santa Fe Public Schools.
