Martha Aguirre, former El Paso ISD interim superintendent, resigns as CFO as district finds ‘key financial challenges’
May 8, 2026 - 01:31
Aguirre stepped down from the CFO role this week. She had previously led the district as interim superintendent before moving into the top financial position. The announcement did not provide specific details about the nature of the financial issues found, but district officials said the review raised serious concerns about EPISD's overall financial health.
The resignation comes at a time when the district is already facing scrutiny over its budget and spending practices. School board members indicated that a deeper investigation into the district's finances is likely. Aguirre's departure marks the second major leadership change in recent months for El Paso ISD, which has been working to stabilize its administration and address long-standing fiscal problems. The district has not yet named an interim replacement for the CFO position.
