Trustees met behind closed doors as dozens of community members attended the meeting, with several urging the board to allow newly elected trustees to weigh in on the decision. One of the biggest questions raised by community members was whether Hernandez would receive additional taxpayer-funded compensation for retiring early. Hernandez's retirement takes effect Feb. 1. The financial terms of the agreement were not publicly disclosed, but board leaders say the agreement should be posted online by the end of the week. The district says more information about its leadership transition will be announced.
