During interviews with the three finalists Monday, June 14, the board asked questions regarding finalists’ experience working with strategic plans and school boards, retaining staff, building partnerships and bringing the community together amid conflicting opinions. The board also asked questions specific to its recently passed Just and Equitable Education policy, including finalists’ previous equity experience and their focus areas for implementing the policy considering community response. The sole person who spoke for public comment, Amy Noraka, expressed concern that the board was not asking candidates any questions directly related to education or curriculum.
