Somerset Hills Community Invited To Help Find New Superintendent

BERNARDSVILLE, NJ — Somerset Hills parents and community members are invited to help select a new superintendent of schools.

A critical issues input session will be held on Tuesday by the Somerset Hills Board of Education to gather information to be used to set criteria for the background, training and experience necessary for the new superintendent of schools.

Search consultant Gwen H. Thornton, from the New Jersey School Boards Association, will explain the search procedure, the roles played by the Board, the staff and the public in the process and the timeline for the search.

Discussion will center on the strengths, areas of concern and future initiatives and issues which will face the new superintendent. Information gathered, together with input from other focus groups, will be used to shape a variety of candidate review documents and the interview questions.

The meeting will last about one hour and be held at 7:30 p.m. in the Bernards High School Community Room.
