This morning's Birmingham News reports the Birmingham Board of Ed will look for a search firm to find their next Superintendent. May I make a suggestion? Get a list of the past two dozen or so positions those headhunters have helped fill...and see how many of those folks are still on the job. If there's a significant percentage who've moved on already...that might say something about the search firm's work. Another Alabama board hired a super after a similar search, but the relationship between the superintendent and the board was in flames within a year, and the board ended up having to buy her house once she moved. Birmingham's Schools, by the way, have had four people in charge in the past decade.
Meanwhile, The Anniston Star has this headline this morning: • Anniston BOE settles with Felton: Board to pay former superintendent $67,875 settlement. You have to be a subscriber to see the entire story.
