Summary

The Swan Valley Board approved a contract with MASB to conduct the district's superintendent search; the motion passed unanimously after the board amended the agenda to add the item.

The Swan Valley School District Board of Education voted unanimously Jan. 23 to hire the Michigan Association of School Boards (MASB) to conduct the district’s superintendent search.

The board first amended the agenda to add the superintendent search item and then approved a motion to "approve MASB, as the Superintendents search firm and their contract." The approval was recorded as Aye: 7, Nye: 0.

Board President Robert Aldrich said the board would move forward with the search under the MASB contract; Superintendent Mat McRae was listed among administrators present at the meeting. The contract approval closes the procedural step needed to begin the search process and authorize MASB to begin work under the Board’s direction.

Next steps were not specified in the meeting minutes; the board discussed the superintendent search during agenda items and scheduled a March 14 retreat (7:30 a.m.–3:00 p.m.) where district leadership and board members often refine search criteria and timeline.
