Superintendent search process [The Journal, Contra Costa Times, pg. 1,
Shelly Meron article, 11/16/2007]. Ostensibly, the outgoing Sup.
Willie Wong will remain focused on his current duties until he
retires. This step was the second item many of us requested. (1) We
wanted them to open the selection process casting a wide net. They
did that. (2) We asked that the Board get expert assistance, i.e. not
have Willie Wong conduct the search for the next Superintendent. The
Board listened. They've done that too.
We've beat up on the Albany School Board enough don't you think? Make
sure to say thank you. They are cc-ed on this email. Commit to
working with the process they lay out. Best,
Perry
P.S. Particular thanks goes to your Vice-President Charles Blanchard.
His data provided from past Board decisions proved invaluable in
constructing this measured course. Charles is a wise community leader
wouldn't you agree?
