After meeting on June 16, 2023, Dr. Moses Cheng, Superintendent of District 94, came to a consensus with the Board of Education of Community High School that their contract would be terminated on June 30.

This information was made public through an email sent on June 21 by Brittney Walker, the Coordinator of Communications and Community Relations for District 94.

“By mutual agreement and settlement, the Board of Education of Community High School District No. 94 and Superintendent, Dr. Moses Cheng, decided to end their contractual relationship,” Walker said.

The resignation came after a joint decision between Cheng and the District 94 school board.

“It is important to the parties that this mutual decision is the result of a difference in political, educational and philosophical approaches,” said Walker.

Cheng has been in the education field since 1993. He began his career as a science teacher at West Aurora High School. In 2007, Cheng became principal of West Chicago Community High School, and served District 94 for the next 16 years. He was appointed superintendent in 2019.
