Search firm McPherson and Jacobson will facilitate three full days and evenings of public input sessions on Monday through Wednesday as part of the school board's nationwide search for a new superintendent.
The firm is inviting various school and community groups, but all members of the public are invited to comment at the daytime session that best matches their interest and/or the evening community forums.
The qualities defined by the school board, community groups, and the general public will help determine which superintendent candidates best match public expectations. The board of education hopes to have the list of candidates narrowed down to several finalists in early May and a new superintendent named by July 1, 2013.
The public input sessions are scheduled as follows:
