The Scott County Board of Education on the regular meeting agenda acknowledged that Bill Hall has tendered his resignation as director of Scott County Schools, effective June 30, 2026, and approved a timeline for recruiting his replacement.
Board leadership presented a schedule that, if approved, will publish a notice of vacancy and request applications and resumes through noon on Friday, March 20, 2026, to be mailed or delivered to board attorney John Beatty at the address provided by staff.

“If the board approves this, I've already spoken with Mr. Bond, and I will get with Mrs. Bond. And, we will advertise on the website, and I will send that out tomorrow,” said Speaker 9 while presenting the application instructions and timeline.
The motion to approve the timeline was made, seconded and put to a roll-call vote.
