Not quite two weeks after Vacaville’s head of schools tendered his resignation, the Vacaville School District governing board approved an interim replacement at Thursday’s board meeting.

Jane Shamieh, the current associate superintendent of business and administrative services, will step up to the helm beginning July 1 and lead the district while it looks for a permanent replacement for Ken Jacopetti.

Shamieh joined the district during the summer of 2014, replacing interim Lettie Allen, who briefly replaced Kari Sousa as the district’s chief business officer in March 2014 when Sousa left to spend more time with her young family.
