MORENO VALLEY, Calif. – On Tuesday, Sept. 19, the Moreno Valley Unified School District Board of Education held a Special Closed Session Board Meeting.

The board of education voted in a 3 to 2 vote to terminate the contract of employment for the superintendent of schools without cause, effective immediately. 

The board appointed Chief Human Resources Officer Dr. Robert Verdi as interim superintendent of schools. 

“I would like to thank Dr. Kedziora for his years of service to the Moreno Valley Unified School District,” said School Board President Susan Smith. “He has exhibited a real love for the students and families of our district. Occasionally there comes a time when institutions such as school districts need to make a change in direction. That time has come for us here at Moreno Valley. We know that everyone will continue to do their best to meet all of the needs of our students and families.” 

The district and board of education is unable to disclose the reasons for the termination due to privacy and confidentiality laws. The board will consider a contract for employment of the Interim Superintendent at its next regularly scheduled meeting.
