LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – Departing Little Rock School Superintendent Jermall Wright on Friday responded to concerns surrounding his surprise resignation announcement.

Wright’s announcement of his voluntary resignation from the job on Thursday night raised some concerns among the Little Rock School District’s parents and students. Among the concerns were those about interim oversight of the school district, which Wright addressed in the letter.

“I will remain in my role until the transition plans are finalized, ensuring clarity and continuity,” Wright wrote. “As we move forward, please remember that our students are and should be the focus of everything we do, and we must never lose sight of that mission.”
