Evergreen School District board advances three superintendent candidates to finalist list

The Evergreen School District (Clark) Board of Directors advanced two applicants as finalists and one as an alternate in its superintendent search during a special meeting Feb. 13.

Board members said the meeting was convened to evaluate applicants for public employment beginning at 9:05 a.m.; the board recessed at 5:30 p.m. and reconvened at 5:32 p.m. The board adjourned at 5:35 p.m.

Director Perkins moved that the board advance “candidate V” as a finalist; Director Grenwalt seconded and the motion passed on a voice vote with members saying “Aye.” Director Boca Negra subsequently moved to advance “candidate T” as a finalist; Director Wilson seconded and that motion also passed on a voice vote. Later, Director Wilson moved to advance “candidate W” as an alternate and Director Braunwald seconded; that motion passed on a voice vote as well. The board did not announce roll-call vote counts in the transcript; minutes show each motion carried after the affirmative voice responses.

At the start of the reconvened session, the board chair asked whether any candidate nominations would be advanced by proxy letter. The transcript records moves, seconds and the voice votes but does not provide the candidates’ full names, application materials, or any individual vote tallies.

These actions complete the board’s selection of finalists and an alternate to continue in the superintendent hiring process; no hiring decision was made at the Feb. 13 session. The board provided no additional public details in the recorded transcript about next steps or timelines for interviews or a final appointment.
