The Lucia Mar Unified School District is bringing on board an assistant superintendent of business services. Raynee Daley , Ed.D, will be taking over the position, succeeding Janice Smith—who holds the position on an interim basis.
Daley, who comes from the Merced Union High School District, will be in charge of planning, communicating, and managing the district’s $85 million budget; she’ll also be responsible for directing the management of a $149.5 million general obligation bond and will oversee construction of facilities.
“I am excited to join the Lucia Mar team—a team of teachers, administrators, staff, and a school board that is innovative in designing an educational system that prepares the students for the future,” Daley said in a statement. “I have been fortunate to have been a part of an excellent district, and I expect that my skills and experiences will continue to grow as I join the Lucia Mar team.”
Daley will bring her 25 years of experience in public education to Lucia Mar in July.
