Former Kentucky education commissioner to leave California superintendent job
LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) – A former Kentucky education commissioner is out of a superintendent job he took in California.
A joint statement from the Governing Board of the Laguna Beach Unified School District and Jason Glass said Glass and the district has reached a mutual agreement to conclude his service.
Glass will be superintendent until the end of May, and the district thanked him for his service and dedication to the students, staff and families of the district.
“Dr. Glass expresses gratitude for the opportunity to serve this exceptional community and wishes the District continued success,” the statement said.
Serving as the Commonwealth’s education commissioner for three years, Glass had resigned from the position in 2023.
Glass had cited anti-LGBTQ laws and changes to future commissioner of education confirmation procedures as reasons for his departure
