The Orange Unified School Board voted 4–3 on Jan. 5 to fire Superintendent Gunn Marie Hansen and Assistant Superintendent Cathleen Corella.

The decision passed in closed session of a special board meeting, called just 24 hours prior by President Rick Ledesma, who was re-elected to the board last November.
