Asheville City Board of Education reviews criteria for interim superintendent

From Asheville City Schools:

During today’s Closed Session, the Asheville City Board of Education reviewed possible candidates for Interim Superintendent.

The Board has decided to look for an individual outside the district with significant experience as a Superintendent to serve as the interim upon Dr. Gene Freeman‘s retirement on November 30, 2022.  The selection process for an Interim Superintendent will be confidential.  However, the vote to approve an Interim Superintendent will occur in a future Board Meeting during Open Session.  That date is to be determined.

The Interim Superintendent will lead the district while the new, majority-elected Board of Education carries out its search process for our next permanent Superintendent.  At the earliest, this national search process will begin in December 2022 after the elected members take their seats on the Board.
