Woodland Hills School District Announces Temporary Leadership Transition


The Woodland Hills School District Board of School Directors announces that, due to unforeseen
circumstances, the District Superintendent is currently on administrative leave. To ensure continuity
of leadership and district operations, Dr. Jean Livingston has been appointed to serve as Acting
Superintendent.

Dr. Livingston brings more than twenty years of educational leadership experience within the
Woodland Hills School District. Her deep familiarity with the district’s schools, students, and
community positions her well to provide steady leadership during this transition. While serving as
Acting Superintendent, Dr. Livingston will continue in her role as Building Principal of Turtle Creek
Elementary STEAM Academy.

In her capacity as Acting Superintendent, Dr. Livingston will oversee District operations and work
closely with the Board of School Directors, administrative staff, and school leadership teams to
maintain the district’s commitment to academic excellence and student success.

“We are confident that Dr. Livingston will provide steady and effective leadership during this
transition,” said Terri Lawson, President of the Board of School Directors. “Our focus remains on
supporting our students, staff, and families while ensuring the continued smooth operation of the
district.”

All District programs, activities, and operations will continue without interruption. The Board of
School Directors will provide updates as appropriate and appreciates the community’s continued
support of Woodland Hills students and schools.
