Superintendent: English and music positions remain open; district seeing international applicants
Summary
Superintendent Nancy Popp told the board English and music teaching positions remain vacant; most current applicants are from outside the U.S., creating cost and logistics challenges for the small district.
Superintendent Nancy Popp reported that both the English and music positions remain open and said current applicants are largely from outside the country, which "is a difficult process and expensive for a district of our size." The board discussed the hiring challenge and the financial and administrative burdens of securing international hires.
Board members asked staff to continue local recruitment efforts and to identify cost-effective options. No hiring decisions were made at the Feb. 10 meeting; the district will continue to solicit applicants and report back to the board when candidates are available.
