Superintendent/Principal

The Vista del Mar Union School District Board of Trustees invites an exceptional leader to serve as Superintendent/Principal of a one-school TK-8 district where leadership is visible, relationships matter, and students experience learning that extends beyond the classroom.

At Vista de Las Cruces School, leadership extends beyond managing systems - it requires a visible, hands-on presence and the ability to shape the daily student experience. Guided by the belief that "Learning is for Life", the district is committed to ensuring every student learns in an environment that is safe, engaging, and designed for meaningful growth.

The Superintendent/Principal serves as both instructional leader and organizational steward, providing hands-on, highly visible leadership across all aspects of the district. This role requires a leader who values relationships, embraces visibility, and understands the significance of each decision within a close-knit school community.

Valid California Administrative Services Credential, Master's degree, a minimum of three years of administrative experience (preferably including site-level leadership), and successful teaching experience (preferably in TK-8 or elementary setting) required.
