“Dedicated.” “Deeply knowledgeable.” “A pleasure to work with.” There are the words past and present Benicia officials used to describe Janice Adams, the superintendent of Benicia Unified School District, who announced recently she plans to conclude her 41-year career in education at the end of the current school year.
“Janice has been a pleasure to work with and is always very kind and considerate,” said Mike Dotson, director of Parks and Community Services, echoing the sentiments of many.
Dotson said his department worked closely with Adams on the city-BUSD joint use agreement and liaison committee, high school playing field renovations and the Every 15 Minutes program against impaired driving.
