The Coronado Unified School Board meeting on June 5, 2025, highlighted significant transitions within the district as a large group of educators prepares for retirement. President Palacios Peters acknowledged the contributions of retiring staff members, noting their extensive experience and the impact they have had on the community and students over the years. Superintendent Mueller echoed these sentiments, emphasizing the personal connections formed between educators and families in the district. The board expressed gratitude for the retiring teachers, wishing them well as they embark on a well-deserved break.
In addition to the retirement discussions, the meeting included public hearings on the district's financial plans.
