• Napa School Trustee Censured Over Conduct (patch.com) — Napa Valley Unified trustees have formally censured board member Julianna Villegas Hart, alleging hostile behavior toward staff, confidentiality breaches, and defiance of governance rules, and have stripped her of committee roles and direct staff access. Representing much of the city of Napa, Villegas Hart disputes the accusations, framing the move as retaliation over her speech and unpaid stipends, while district leaders describe it as necessary to protect employees and operations.
