TESD accepts equity director Oscar Torres’ retirement and names Kim Morris as successor
Summary
The board accepted the retirement of Dr. Oscar Torres and congratulated Dr. Kim Morris as the district’s next director of equity and public programs; both personnel items were reported as part of the consent agenda.
During the May 27 meeting the Tredyffrin‑Easttown School District board acknowledged the announced retirement of Dr. Oscar Torres, the district’s director of equity and public programs, and noted that the retirement was included in the consent agenda the board approved.
"Dr. Torres has worked in our district a long time ... He has had many roles here in our district," Vice President Sue Tidi said as she announced the retirement and thanked Torres for his service. The board also "congratulated Dr. Kim Morris as our next director of equity and public programs," Tidi said, and noted Morris previously served as assistant principal at the middle school and as a supervisor of curriculum and staff development.
The personnel actions were part of the consent agenda the board approved by voice vote (8–0). The board did not provide salary or start‑date details in the meeting discussion.
Why it matters: leadership in equity and public programs affects district policies and programs related to inclusion, professional development and community engagement. The board’s approval of the consent agenda places the personnel changes into the official record.
Next steps: the administration will implement the leadership transition; the board did not set additional public actions during the meeting.
