Alamogordo Public Schools Special Session Renteria to Continue with Pay till December 31st

The Alamogordo Public Schools met in special session and then public session on Monday to receive an update on investigations into Superintendent, Pam Renteria.

The special session heard a report on the investigation. The board then reconvened into regular session, and the board, as expected voted, not to renew her contract or to offer her an extension.

She has been on paid administrative leave since January, once the newly elected board convened. The board voted to refer any investigative findings to "appropriate parties" and then voted to continue Mrs. Renteria's paid leave through the end if her contract term of December 31st, 2024. 

The board then addressed Superintendent Crabtree and opted to continue him as interim Superintendent and possibly naming him acting superintendent before the December 31st deadline. The board had promised during the campaign season to do a national search for a new superintendent. If that promise is kept is yet to be seen.
