The Chico Unified School District Board of Trustees voted unanimously in public session to record the result of a closed-session annual performance review that found Superintendent Greg Blake “has progressed successfully” during the 2025–26 school year.
The vote followed a closed-session evaluation conducted using seven categories and 46 subcategories. The board announced on the record that member Hayes moved the motion and member Lando provided the second; the result was reported as five in favor, zero opposed.
The board did this year’s review in closed session, as allowed under personnel provisions of open-meeting law, and then publicly reported the formal outcome. The evaluation framework discussed at the meeting included governance, communication, fiscal stewardship and student‑outcome focus among the categories trustees reviewed.
Board practice described in the discussion calls for using the self-evaluation to set priorities for the coming year; trustees indicated staff will work with board members to convert the self-evaluation into a small set of governance goals. No additional details of the superintendent’s individual ratings were released in the public record at the meeting.
The board did not indicate any immediate change in contract terms during the session; trustees said they will return in August with proposed governance goals derived from the evaluation.
