Boys & Girls Club of San Marcos has announced the appointment of three additions to its Board of Directors in 2022.

The newest board directors include Dr. Andy Johnsen, Darius Khayat, and Stacy Moskowitz, local business and community leaders who expressed strong belief and commitment to furthering opportunities for local youth.



“Our Board of Directors plays a critical role for our organization, providing strategic direction as well as fiscal oversight,” said Cathy Baur, President & CEO for the youth development organization. “We are thrilled to add three individuals whose values align with our mission and overarching goal to ensure every child in San Marcos has access to the tools and opportunities they need to succeed.”

Before assuming the role of Superintendent, Dr. Johnsen led the district’s Educational Services Department as Assistant Superintendent.


Throughout Dr. Johnsen’s storied career, he has undertaken an array of initiatives and outreach that have created an environment of collegiality with staff, families, and the community-at-large.
