Superintendent: North Side principal search will include three interview rounds; selection hoped for by May
Summary
The superintendent said the district’s committee will hold three rounds of interviews for the North Side principal post and is aiming to name a candidate in April or by early May; the search process is ongoing.
The superintendent of Shelby County Schools said in a superintendent wrap-up that the district will resume the North Side principal search and that a committee will conduct three rounds of interviews with a hoped-for selection in April or by early May.
The superintendent described the next steps in the hiring process as a committee meeting to develop interview questions and begin scheduling interviews. “We will have three rounds of interviews,” the superintendent said. “We’re hopeful that we can make a selection, sometime in April, certainly by early May.”
The superintendent also said the committee will meet again to “start formulating some questions and start thinking about the interview process.” No additional details about the committee membership, candidate pool, or formal selection criteria were provided in the wrap-up. The superintendent did not announce a specific appointment date or name any finalists.
As context, the superintendent noted attendance with the board of education at the KSBA annual conference in Louisville and offered brief operational remarks that district basketball tournaments begin this week. Those items were mentioned as background and were not tied to the principal search timeline.
Next steps: the superintendent indicated the committee will reconvene to prepare interview questions and move forward with three interview rounds. A formal appointment has not been made; the district intends to announce a selection "sometime in April, certainly by early May," per the superintendent’s remarks.
