Timeline
Refugio Rodriguez (born 1972) is adjunct professor and a former member of the Los Angeles Unified School District Board of Education representing District 5 and former president of the board.
He also lectured at Loyola Marymount University and was appointed by Governor Jerry Brown to the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing in 2013.
In November 2014, Rodriguez announced that he would be running for a seat in the Board of Education and raised $50,000 during the first campaign reporting period.
He ran against incumbent Bennett Kayser and Andrew Thomas, a professor at Walden University.
He maintained that he would do more for the District than pander to charter schools.
The case was linked back to Rodriguez's bid for the board in 2014, with he and cousin Elizabeth Tinajero Melendrez reimbursing $25,000 to his campaign donors, most of whom were family and friends.
In January 2015, Rodriguez reported in his first campaign disclosure statement that more than $51,000 had come from family, friends, and other people, but half actually had come from himself.
On July 7, 2017, Rodriguez was elected as the president of the Board of Education by a 4–3 vote.
The four votes were newly elected members Kelly Gonez and Nick Melvoin, reelected member Mónica García, and Rodriguez himself.
LA County District Attorney Jackie Lacey charged Rodriguez with three felony charges of conspiracy, perjury, and procuring and offering a false or forged instrument.
On September 20, 2017, the United Teachers Los Angeles called for the resignation of Rodriguez.
On September 19, 2017, Rodriguez stepped down as president amid charges of perjury and other felonies.
Although stepping down, he remained on the board.
On October 24, 2017, he pleaded not guilty to the charges.
On October 13, 2017, a conflict of interest complaint was filed against Rodriguez by a charter school network that he founded.
A week later, on October 24, 2017, the California Fair Political Practices Commission closed the case, citing his conspiracy charges filed by the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office.
The conflict of interest case did not have any relation to his felony case.
He resigned from both positions on July 23, 2018, after an accounting scandal.
Rodriguez grew up in Cypress Park, Los Angeles and was the first of five children of Mexican immigrants to graduate from college, earning a bachelor's degree from Loyola Marymount University and a PhD from Fielding Graduate University.
He returned to his home neighborhood after college to co-found Partnerships to Uplift Communities (PUC), a public charter school program, with Jacqueline Elliot.
On July 23, 2018, Rodriguez pleaded guilty to a felony count of conspiracy and four misdemeanor counts, and as part of a deal with prosecutors, resigned from office.
On March 16, 2018, Rodriguez was arrested at The Paseo at around 4:30 p.m. for suspicion of public intoxication.
He was released without being charged or cited, with Rodriguez thanking the officers for "being kind and seeing this for the non- event that it was.”
In March, 2023, Rodriquez was hired by Santa Ana College as the head of Career Education/Dual Enrollment amid community criticism.
Ten candidates ran to replace Rodriguez, and he was replaced by Jackie Goldberg in 2019.
