Dr. Vazquez Steps Down After 30 Years | Orlando News
Description
Dr. Maria Vazquez, Orange County’s groundbreaking first Hispanic superintendent and a 30-year district veteran, is retiring at the end of the 2026-27 school year after a stellar tenure marked by three straight “A” ratings from Florida’s education department and nearly 80% of schools earning top grades. While she didn’t specify her reasons, she framed her exit as a reflective, hopeful step forward. Vazquez vows to remain fully committed to the district until her departure, as school board chair Teresa Jacobs also steps down this November.
