Easton, Redding Schools Seek Community Input In Search For Super

EASTON/REDDING, CT — The Easton, Redding and Region 9 Boards of Education are reaching out to community members for input regarding their search for the next superintendent.

The boards have hired Joseph Erardi, a search consultant, to assist with the process of replacing Rydell Harrison, who resigned last month.

The districts will be hosting three opportunities for residents to share their insight with the consultant.

Erardi will be facilitating the community discussions, scheduled for 10:00 a.m., 4:00 p.m., and 7:00 p.m. on July 26 in the Learning Commons at Joel Barlow High School, at 100 Black Rock Turnpike in Redding. School protocol on mask-wearing will apply, according to a news release from the tri-board.

Easton Board of Education member Jennifer Chieda said that it is unlikely the public would be involved in the actual interview process but would be included as much as possible, according to the minutes of their most recent board meeting on Monday.

Residents who want further information about the event are advised to contact Erardi via email at erardij@gmail.com.
