Trustees from the Simi Valley Unified School District are looking for a permanent replacement to fill the spot left by Dan Flynn in February.

Flynn was forced to resign after three months on the job, when three board members voted that he hadn’t earned their trust. Flynn was hired without community involvement, as he was the only candidate interviewed for the job before a nationwide search could be conducted.

This time, trustees have said they want to ask the community what they want in a schools chief.
