Board approves opening superintendent position and starts hiring timeline
Summary
Trustees voted to declare the superintendent position open for the 2025–26 year and directed staff to advertise, with plans to screen candidates in January and interview in February to secure top candidates before spring.
The Mountain View School District Board voted to declare the superintendent position open for the 2025–26 school year and begin the hiring process. Superintendent (speaker 9) recommended opening the position, telling trustees to "get it open, let's get it advertised" so the district can attract candidates and, if needed, use ISBA outreach in December. The board moved and seconded the motion and approved it by voice vote.
Trustees discussed posting platforms and timelines. The superintendent said the district typically uses Frontline (and may consider alternatives) and that applications should be reviewed in January with interviews in January–February, because the best candidates are most available then. A trustee asked to see the job description and flyer before broad distribution; staff agreed to circulate the existing materials and allow trustees to suggest any qualification edits at the December meeting.
