Discussion (Visible on Public Minutes):
Nate Tucker asked Mr. Kelly Kiser to review the process the Board used during the Director of Schools search.
Mr. Kelly Kiser reviewed the history, beginning with selecting a search agency-Ray & Associates. Met with local stakeholders, staff and community members. The board narrowed a large pool to 10 very qualified candidates down to 3 finalists during the first round of interviews, which took place over Google meet. The top 3 finalists visited Cleveland City Schools during the first week of May, where we held community, staff, and stakeholder meet and greets where each group submitted questions through a link provided by Ray and Associates and Kelly Kiser moderated these meetings and asked the questions to the candidates and now at the final board vote. |
