Hoover City Council To Interview School Board Applicants

HOOVER, AL - Six applicants for Hoover's school board will be interviewed by the Hoover City Council, as the council looks to replace Earl Cooper on the board.

According to a report by the Hoover Sun, the interviews originally were scheduled to take place Monday, March 19, between 3:40 p.m. and 5:40 p.m. on the third floor at the Hoover Municipal Center, but the threat of inclement weather caused the council to postpone the interviews. A new date and times have not yet been set.

Applicants for the spot on the board include:

• Jamie Elliot, administrator with the Cystic Fibrosis Research Center at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
• Rasheen Jackson, pharmacist for Anthem Inc.
• Amy Mudano, research associate and epidemiologist at UAB School of Medicine
• Michelle Nalls, co-founder of College Admissions Made Possible and former Simmons Middle School teacher
• Charles Notar, retired education professor at Jacksonville State University
• Alan Paquette, vice president of property management for Jim Wilson & Associates

The council expects to make its selection on April 2, and the new school board member’s term will begin on June 1.
