Board authorizes McPherson Jacobson to lead superintendent search
Summary
After reviewing RFPs and scoring rubrics, the board voted to contract with executive search firm McPherson Jacobson to conduct the superintendent search whose employment would commence 07/01/2026; board members waived additional interviews based on the scoring outcome.
The board authorized contracting with McPherson Jacobson to conduct the district’s superintendent search, following a review of request-for-proposal responses and a scoring rubric.
Presenters said 17 RFPs were circulated with four responses; rubric scoring indicated one firm stood “far and above the others,” and the recommendation was to prepare a contract rather than proceed with an interview stage. The board discussed the recommendation and a motion to hire McPherson Jacobson was moved and seconded.
Clerk roll call was taken and board members recorded their approval; the chair said, "Motion carries." Administrators said the firm would begin information gathering and set up meetings with the board once the contract is finalized, and that the new superintendent’s employment would commence on 07/01/2026.
Board members expressed appreciation for starting the search early to avoid a condensed timeline and noted staff would coordinate next steps with the consultant.
