Summary
Liz Joyce reported the superintendent search survey received 350 responses, the screening committee expanded to 13 members, and applications will be reviewed through Nov. 1 with initial interviews planned for early November and public candidate forums to follow.
Liz Joyce, reporting for the Superintendent Search Committee, told the School Committee on Oct. 6 that the search survey collected 350 responses from parents, students, educators and community members. The survey identified top priorities for the next superintendent: academic standards, financial management, educational leadership, curriculum development, and communication.
The search committee has been expanded to 13 members and will review applications through Nov. 1, with initial interviews scheduled for early November. Joyce said the committee plans open forums and candidate forums to allow additional public input, and members discussed refining interview questions to reflect survey themes. The committee also emphasized screening committee involvement throughout the process.
Why it matters: The screening timeline and community input shape the pool of candidates and the selection criteria for the district’s next superintendent.
Next steps: The committee will post opportunities for public input and proceed with application screening and interview scheduling.
