The Santa Barbara Unified School District has hired two new district administrators, ShaKenya Edison, a director of student services in Menifee, and Dr. Stanley Munro, a principal of an elementary school in Fresno.
Following several high-ranking Santa Barbara Unified School District administrators leaving their positions in the last year, the district has hired two new administrators to take over the roles of Assistant Superintendent of Student Services, currently held by Frann Wageneck, and Assistant Superintendent of Elementary Schools, currently held by Ana Escobedo.
Munro, originally born and raised in Canada, is taking over the position of Assistant Superintendent of Elementary Schools, transferring from his current position as principal of Ayer Elementary School in Fresno. Munro has been an educator for more than 19 years, beginning as a teacher in Baltimore, and later working as an administrator in Dallas, Texas; the District of Columbia; San Diego; and Beloit, Wisconsin.
