Three districts wanted appointed superintendent

   March 9, 2023

A review of the voting by district on the 2018 referendum for an appointed school superintendent reveals that three districts approved of the change.

Two districts- D2 and D3 – have some of the county’s lowest-performing schools. D4 encompasses most of the city of Pensacola and has several high-performing elementary schools.

D1 – Beulah area – had the narrowest margin – a 642 vote margin against the switch.

D5 – north Escambia – overwhelmingly wanted to keep an elected superintendent.
