Board appoints Griff Mills as interim superintendent despite objections over disclosure
Summary
After voting to place Amy Wilcox on paid leave, the board amended its agenda to name Griff Mills interim superintendent starting July 21; several members objected they had no details about his background or terms before the vote, which passed 4–2.
The board amended the agenda and appointed Griff Mills as interim superintendent, with the chair stating he would begin July 21. Several board members said they had not been provided information about Mills’ background, qualifications or compensation and called the appointment ‘‘haphazard’’ and procedurally unfair.
Supporters said the district needed leadership in place before school starts; critics warned the surprise appointment risked further legal exposure and undermined board trust. The transcript records objections that members were not given adequate notice or time to vet the interim hire before voting.
