This deal will allow Kathy Osborne to remain as Interim Superintendent\u00a0 for the rest of the school year if needed.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Here’s the statement from Danville Public Schools…<\/p>\n
The Danville School Board voted unanimously last night, after a closed session on personnel, to name Kathy Osborne as Interim Superintendent until a permanent Superintendent takes office. The Board’s action authorizes Dr. Osborne to continue serving as Interim Superintendent through June 30, 2015, if the new Superintendent is not available until July 1. School Board Attorney Alan Spencer will be working on a written contract to formalize the arrangement, which will then be signed by Board Chairman Ed Polhamus and by Dr. Osborne.
\nThe Board had voted on June 30 to name Osborne as Acting Superintendent for a 10-week period, which ends this weekend. The new contract, with the title of Interim Superintendent, will be effective Monday, September 8.
\nAccording to Chairman Polhamus, \u201cthis contract will ensure continuity of leadership for our schools throughout the time period of the national search process.\u201d Earlier Thursday evening in their regular monthly meeting, the Board had voted to utilize a national consulting firm to assist with the search. The costs of the search will be paid for by The Future of the Piedmont Foundation. A tentative time-line for the search was discussed, finishing with a projected naming of the next Superintendent by December 20th, within the 180-day window mandated by state law.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nDeveloping…<\/p>\n
