District says 20 people applied for superintendent; vetting, one-hour interviews under way
Summary
The PASCAGOULA-GAUTIER School District reported 20 applicants for the superintendent post; staff are verifying qualifications and conducting at least one-hour interviews before forwarding candidates to the board, a process that could take up to three weeks.
A member of the PASCAGOULA-GAUTIER School District board reported that 20 people applied for the district superintendent job and that staff are vetting applicants before forwarding names to the board for review.
Board Member 3, a member of the district board, said, "The closing date was Friday. So I've been made aware we have 20 applicants. And, Dr. Henderson, they are in the process now of verifying that they meet the criteria, going through each one, and they're also doing at least a one hour interview with each one before they will submit them to us for review." He added, "She said it could take a a couple weeks, 3 weeks possibly, for that review."
The update was delivered during the meeting's action-items segment as trustees moved through routine business. No vote was taken on the search during the meeting.
Board members did not raise additional questions while the update was given. The district did not provide a timeline for finalist interviews, any planned public forums, or whether an interim superintendent is in place; those details were not specified in the meeting record.
