Silver Falls School District officials proposed a timeline for choosing an interim superintendent to begin July 1 after current Interim Superintendent Joe Morelock’s service concludes.
During the SFSD Board April 8 meeting, dates for gathering public and staff feedback, and conducting interviews were presented. Board Chair Jennifer Traeger said the goal is to expend as little money on the process as possible. Dates include:
April 16 or 17: A community forum led by Kevin Palmer and Melissa Seifer-Briggs to gather input on qualities and qualifications for a superintendent.
April 22: A public hearing before the board on qualities and qualifications, followed by a work session to approve salary range, job description and consultants.
April 23: District begins advertising interim superintendent position.
May 13: Application period closes and board begins reviewing applications in executive session.
May 14-24: Board conducts interviews, then negotiates contract with prospective candidate.
May 28: Board votes to hire candidate and approve contract.
The agreement for the services of Interim Superintendent Joe Morelock expires June 30.
