After months spent trying to get a handle on millions of dollars in budget deficits, followed by a recent whistleblower complaint, another high-level administrator has left the Marysville School District.

The district announced that the Human Resources Executive Director had left late this week. "I think he knew it was time to go," said J. Hooman, Parent and Co-Founder of the Marysville Community Coalition. At last week's Marysville School Board Meeting, J. Hooman and other parents reacted to a letter that was written by Executive Director of Finance and Operations Dr. Lisa Gonzales, accusing the district of law violations, inaccurate state reports and cronyism.

"We are overpaying staff on a regular basis because of misinformation," she saidOn May 22nd, Gonzales said that she had a "heated" meeting with Cooper, after reporting problems to the state auditor. The next day, she said the superintendent told her he would not renew her contract."With Lisa being gone, and now following, you know, Alvin Cooper’s departure as well. I think the house of cards is crumbling," said Hooman.
