School trustees to announce superintendent finalists on

The Board of Education will announce the final three candidates for the position on June 15. These candidates will be invited to participate in a televised interview and presentation to the community at 6 p.m. June 17 in the auditorium at the Eugene Brucker Education Center, 4100 Normal St..

This community presentation marks the culmination of a search process that over the last three months has given the public opportunities to share their opinions with the school board about the most desirable skills and personal qualities needed in the next superintendent. The process included five town hall meetings as well as opportunities to submit suggestions through the district website.

The process also included the involvement of a board-appointed committee comprised of 15 volunteers who helped facilitate the town hall meetings and reviewed all applications for the position. Based on community input and the superintendent position description, the advisory committee submitted their recommendations to the Board of the candidates to be interviewed.

On June 17, each final candidate will have 45 minutes to answer questions submitted in advance by the public and to present their qualifications. The presentations are open to the public and will be webcast as well as telecast live on Cable Channel 16. The

meeting video will be available for online viewing at any time. Submit suggested questions through the Superintendent Search website at

www.sandi.net/suptsearch

or by email to communications@sandi.net.

Following this community interview, the Board of Education plans to conduct final interviews and make a selection at the end of June or early July.
