Dear Sausalito Marin City School District Community,
I am honored to be serving as the Acting Superintendent of the Sausalito Marin City School District during this important transition.
This district holds a special place in my heart, and I am committed to helping ensure a smooth and successful transition throughout the summer months. My focus is to support our dedicated staff as they prepare to welcome students and families for a successful new school year.
I will be working closely with the Board of Trustees during the transition and planning process until a longer-term interim superintendent is selected. My goal is to provide stability, continuity, and support while keeping our focus on what matters most—our students.
Please know that I am here to serve and assist in any way that may be helpful to you or your family. I welcome your questions, ideas, and concerns, and can be reached at vpitts@smcsd.org.
