School board outlines interview rules, timing for at-large vacancy
Summary
The board described a random drawing to set interview order for 15 candidates, limited each interview to 12 minutes (including a two-minute opening statement) and scheduled a public hearing and final appointment at the Sept. 24 meeting.
Chair Rebecca Berlin reviewed the logistics for interviews to fill the vacant at‑large seat: after eligibility review the board had 15 candidates; numbers were drawn to determine order; the first four interviewees would sit up front and each candidate would receive a visible 12‑minute timed slot that includes a two‑minute opening statement and three pre-supplied questions. The chair told applicants the board expects to select and announce the appointee at its Thursday, Sept. 24 meeting following an advertised public hearing.
Explaining the time rules, the chair said, "Each candidate will have a total of 12 minutes. The clock will begin when I recognize the candidate and the candidate begins speaking." The clerk and chief legal officer conducted the number drawing and the board set a public hearing for Sept. 17 at 6:30 p.m. to receive community comment regarding the candidates.
