Mayer Unified School DistrictMayer Unified School District 43 is a school district in Yavapai County, Arizona. It operates Mayer Elementary School (a K-8 school) and Mayer High School (grades 9-12).[1] The district includes the Cordes Lakes and Spring Valley census-designated places, most of the Mayer CDP, and a portion of the Black Canyon City CDP.[2] It also includes Poland Junction.[3] History
Eli Casey was superintendent for a period until the board of trustees, in April 2000, decided to select a new superintendent.[4] In 2001 there was a conflict when the board of trustees encountered difficulty agreeing on who would be a new board member. Paul Street, the Superintendent of Schools of Yavapai County, told the Mayer USD board that it would either need to organize a special election, or all existing members would have to collectively pick the new member. All members of the board agreed to select a member, which meant that the district did not have to spend money on organizing the special election. Daily Courier gave a positive reception to that decision.[5] Pat Dallabetta had been superintendent from sometime around 2001 until 2009, when he decided to retire.[6] In 2010 Mayer USD asked Dean Slaga to become the superintendent.[7] In 2019 Slaga was selected as the "All Arizona Superintendent for Small Districts" for that year.[8] References
