The Holliston School Committee on May 29 moved to replace a previously named committee member on a district panel and appointed a school‑committee liaison to the district’s student‑services director (SSD) search committee.

Chair (unnamed) asked for a motion to replace Mr. McLeod on a district/school representative panel; the committee approved a motion to add Carla Krauss as the replacement. The chair then opened a discussion and scheduling for interviews related to the SSD search process.

The committee also entertained a motion to appoint “Hillary” as the school‑committee liaison to the SSD search committee and confirmed interview dates: an organizational session and confidentiality brief (June 2), candidate interviews (June 5) and a second interview night (June 10). The chair indicated finalists could be brought forward for public interview at a later date if needed; committee members discussed scheduling and the possible need for a public forum for finalists.

Why it matters: The SSD role oversees student support personnel and services; the committee’s liaison role and the interview schedule accelerate a tight hiring timeline before the new school year.

Actions and scheduling recorded in the meeting transcript:

- Motion to replace Mr. McLeod with Carla Krauss on the district/school representative panel: motion moved and seconded; committee consensus recorded and first meeting for the panel planned for June 11.

- Motion to appoint Hillary as liaison to the SSD search committee: motion moved and supported; the committee discussed dates (June 2 organizational meeting, June 5 and June 10 interviews) and the possibility of an additional public interview for finalists.

Ending: Committee members agreed to proceed on the timeline and to coordinate logistics for interviews; no public vote tallies for the liaison appointment were recorded on the transcript beyond the motions and verbal confirmations.
