Monrovia board confirms several district and school appointments; students earn state civic‑engagement seal
Summary
The board recognized student achievements and accepted personnel appointments including an assistant superintendent of business services, a director of educational services and principal and vice‑principal posts at Monrovia High School and Clifton Middle School.
The Monrovia Unified School District Board on June 11 accepted several appointments and recognized student achievements as part of its regular meeting.
The meeting recap cited acceptance of a new assistant superintendent of business services, identified in the audio as Dr. Giro, who expressed gratitude to his family and the district. Scott Moses, formerly principal at Clifton Middle School, was appointed director of educational services and spoke of his continuing dedication to the district. A former Clifton assistant principal, identified as Miss Leoni in the meeting audio, accepted the principal role at Clifton Middle School and outlined goals including building an instructional model and promoting AI literacy in the school culture.
At Monrovia High School, Morales Ramirez was named vice principal and described the appointment as "a full circle moment," noting prior service to the district since 2011 and contributions including gains in secondary English language arts scores. The board also welcomed Crystal Loy (last name pronounced by the hosts as "Palmerville" in the audio) as a new assistant principal at Monrovia High School, recognized for work with professional learning communities.
The board recognized seven Monrovia High School students from the Humanities Academy for earning the California State Seal of Civic Engagement after completing coursework and a service project with Habitat for Humanity in El Sereno. A student speaker, Eric Traeger of the Digital Studies Academy, urged the board to support continuation of the MHS game‑design pathway after a valued teacher announced plans to leave.
Speakers noted the appointments are largely internal promotions, a strategy Vice President Trivante said aims to build stability after recent years of leadership change. No formal personnel vote details were read on the audio; the host referred listeners to the posted meeting video and agenda packet for the precise timing and formal personnel actions.
