Clarkstown Superintendent Search: Take the Survey
District officials and consultants searching for a new schools chief want input from the community -- the deadline is Oct. 9.

The Clarkstown Board of Education and its consultants want district residents to respond to a short, confidential survey about the qualities they want in a new schools superintendent.
The hope is to have someone hired and ready to start July 1, 2016.
The survey identifies 16 different experiences and skills that are important for people who run school districts, and it asks respondents to prioritize the top 5. In addition, it asks people to name one top quality.
