                                        4. DISCUSSION CONCERNING SUPERINTENDENT SEARCH PROCESS                 
        Speaker(s): 
Kevin Alexander     
        Discussion: 
 Kevin Alexander is recommending to the Board, to meet one night and reconcile differences before beginning a Superintendent search. Mr. Alexander also would like the Board to wait until after the summer since so much had been planned with the Board members schedules. Several Board Members agreed to wait and do a good search after summer. Janice Hampton mentioned that she would like to see the application process to start at this time due to what her constituents are wanting from her district. Shannon Stewart mentioned that she would like for the Board to wait since the contract for the Short Term Superintendent to be finished. Mrs. Stewart and Janice Hampton would like to reconcile before moving forward. Morris Merriweather disagrees that the Board is not getting along but we have waited too long to begin a Superintendent Search. Jim Campbell agrees that the Board needs to reconcile the trust among the each Board Member and what principles will be used for a superintendent. This process would be for the good of the system and a superintendent. Mr. Campbell stated that he and Janice Hampton have been on the Board going on eight years and this will be the fourth Superintendent. James Johnson mentioned that the guidelines for a Superintendent will need to be set and who will do the search. Doris Black asked if a local search is done, do we need anyone to help the Board for a search? Ms. Black still had questions on the the process would work. AJ Massey agrees with Kevin and Jim about how we should wait and do the process correct. The Board was in consensus they would like to wait until after summer and work on the guidelines and a job description for the Superintendent Search. | |
