Port Angeles School District board advances three superintendent finalists
Summary
The Port Angeles School District board voted to advance three candidates identified by letters O, R and Q to finalist interviews in the districtsuperintendent search; a separately moved candidate identified as Y was not listed among the confirmed finalists.
At a meeting of the Port Angeles School District board, board members voted by voice to advance three candidates identified in the record as O, R and Q to finalist interviews for the district—s superintendent search. Motions to advance the candidates were made and seconded and carried by voice vote.
The action narrows the pool of applicants and schedules finalist interviews that were referenced in the meeting as occurring on February 27 and/or February 28. Board members did not provide a consistent single date for the interviews during the discussion.
Board member (speaker 1) moved to advance candidate O to a finalist interview; a second was recorded and the board voted "Aye." Board member (speaker 1) later moved to advance candidate R to finalist status; that motion also was seconded and passed on a voice vote. A motion to advance a candidate identified as Y was made and seconded during the meeting, but the final roll call of finalists confirmed by the board did not include Y. The record shows the board confirmed candidates O, R and Q as finalists before adjourning.
A motion to advance candidate Q was discussed and put to a voice vote; the board—s final confirmation listed Q among the candidates advancing. During the meeting one participant said, "I move to move candidate O forward," and another replied, "I'll second that," both recorded in the meeting transcript and attributed in the record to the two participants identified only as speaker 1 and speaker 2.
The meeting record includes an unclear verbal reference to the name "Kenneth Y. Wilm" in the context of a candidate not advancing; the transcript is inconsistent on that point and the board—s final confirmation named only the lettered candidates O, R and Q as having advanced.
Board members noted they would meet again later in the week; one speaker said, "we'll be together again Thursday and and then Thursday and Friday," indicating additional meetings or interview days were scheduled but without specific public detail about the agenda for those sessions. The board adjourned after confirming the finalists.
Votes at a glance: motions to advance candidates O, R and Q were made, seconded and carried by voice vote; a motion to advance candidate Y was made and seconded but Y does not appear in the board—s final confirmation of finalists in the meeting transcript.
