FUSD Superintendent Nelson’s Final Message

Happy Monday Fresno Unified Family!

As I’m sure you’ve heard, on Friday the Board of Education announced they have selected Misty Her to become the Interim Superintendent following the adoption of her new contract at this Wednesday’s board meeting. At that time, we also expect the board to adopt a new contract for me to become a special advisor to Misty with the remainder of my time here. All that to say, these are my last few official days as your Superintendent! Please take a few minutes to watch my final Superintendent message by clicking here.

I’m sharing my congratulations to Misty, my gratitude for YOU, my apologies, my final thoughts as your Superintendent, and most importantly my gratitude to my beautiful wife Tiffany, our children, and my mother without whose direct support I could not have served in this role. Serving in this role has truly been the greatest honor of my work life. Just closing out in love and affirming I will continue to be a fierce advocate for you and our students for the rest of my life! I could never thank you enough for these 33 years of serving alongside you. Keep up the good fight Fresno Unified family!

With love and gratitude,
Bob
