Superintendent Search Update from the Board of School Directors

March 10, 2022

The following message is from the Board of School Directors regarding the superintendent search. Additional information about the search can be found on the Superintendent Search web page.

 

Dear YSSD Parents, Students, Staff and Community:

We are excited to announce that the superintendent search has reached the interview stage!

In preparation for selecting the candidates, we have reviewed stakeholder input from the 11 in-person focus groups conducted during the month of February along with input provided via the online survey, and we are now selecting interview questions and developing a candidate profile based on participant feedback. As mentioned during the focus groups, at the conclusion of the search, the emerging themes identified in the focus groups will be published on the District’s website.

Simultaneously, we are screening applicants and selecting those who best match the criteria for first-round interviews. At the conclusion of first-round interviews, we will select the candidates to advance to second-round interviews. First and second-round interviews will be conducted during the month of March.

Based on our progress thus far, the Board still anticipates that the search process will be completed by late spring.

We continue to be extremely appreciative of the staff and community’s input and support during this very important process and would like to thank all of those who attended the focus groups or who provided feedback via the survey.

We will continue to provide updates; however, if you have additional questions, please feel welcome to contact Board President John Posenau at john.posenau@yssd.org.

Sincerely,
Board of School Directors
York Suburban School District
