Chair
Janette Palmer called the meeting of the Molalla River School District Board of
Education to order at 6:10 p.m. and welcomed the participants who have volunteered their time
to serve on the Superintendent Search Screening Committee.
Bob
Bums, OSBA Executive Search Consultant, announced that there were 21 applicants
for the
superintendent position. Of the 21, 15 are from Oregon, six from out of state.
Of those 21 applicants, 11 are current superintendents, one assistant superintendent, three
ex-superintendents, five directors and one assistant professor.
Mr. Bums
stated that it would take each committee member about 10-15 hours to do the work
in reviewing and scoring the applicants. They were asked to pick their top 10
candidates by the end of the process.
The
timeline for reviewing the files was extended through February 21, 2003.
Mr. Bums
emphasized the importance of confidentiality and reviewed the responsibilities
of the
committee. Under ORS 192.660(3) the media is allowed to attend the executive
sessions where the candidates are discussed but they cannot report on the discussion or the
candidates. They are not to be told the names of the candidates. It was agreed that all candidates should be
addressed by their file number rather than their name.
.
The
next meeting of the committee will be February 25 at 6:00 p.m. At that time the
committee
will present their recommendations to the Board. At that time, the job of the
screening committee is over. The Board will conduct the remainder of the process, including the
interviews.
At
6:56 p.m. the meeting adjourned to executive session under ORS 192.660(l)(a) -
Personnel, to
begin review of the application files.
