South San ISD Interim Superintendent Henry Yzaguirre listens during a South San school board meeting in March.The South San Antonio school board’s failure to meet for almost two months “created monumental problems,” according to reports from the district’s state-appointed monitor, that include a possible violation of the Texas Education Code and the mounting costs of paying two superintendents.
Trustees met and approved the money transfer after Yzaguirre authorized the transaction. The education code states that a school board must amend the budget before spending the money, said Joy Baskin, director of legal services at the Texas Association of School Boards, in March. “For that reason, districts need to try harder to be able to sell themselves as the district of choice not only to students and parents but to teachers, as well,” he said. “Whenever a district becomes dysfunctional, it hurts the district’s opportunities to employ teachers.”
South San ISD Superintendent Marc Puig speaks during a board meeting in October. He was suspended two months later.In the past five months, South San ISD has paid almost $200,000 to employ both Puig and Yzaguirre, which is equivalent to one superintendent’s annual salary. The district has paid Puig about $93,750 and Yzaguirre about $93,953 since December, totaling $187,703.
