Dr. Jeff Rose, Superintendent of Beaverton Schools, is a finalist for the job of Superintendent of the Fulton County School Ditrict in Georgia.

He is the only finalist.

So, Thursday morning, the Beaverton School District announced they have started the search for his replacement.

“For the past five years, Superintendent Rose has shared his passion, talent and hard work with the students, staff, and community of the Beaverton School District,” says the chairwoman of the Beaverton School Board, Anne Bryan.

"He has strengthened staff, fostered positive relationships with students, and partnered with local and state education leaders.

Rose says the decision to leave Beaverton, which he has led for five years, has not been an easy one.
