SUPERINTENDENT SEARCH UPDATE
Tri County Public Schools is hosting a community forum to meet with the representatives of the superintendent search firm, McPherson & Jacobson. The purpose of the meeting is to determine the qualities and characteristics the patrons want in their next superintendent.
Community members will have the opportunity to engage in a dialogue with the representatives of the firm and share their ideas for the next leader of Tri County Public Schools. The meeting will take place on Monday, October 28th at 6:00 PM in the Elementary school activity center. Please use the elementary school doors to access the meeting.
For those who were unable to attend the “Community Input Forum,” here is the “Survey Monkey” link that is accessible on the school website from October 28th – November 5th. It will allow any user to provide their anonymous input on the skills and traits the next superintendent needs to possess as well as highlight the positives of the Tri County community and school district. We want your voice to be heard throughout this important process. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the characteristics of the next Tri County superintendent.
