| Notes
provided by: Susanne Owayda
Thanks to Suzanne
for her draft notes which are much more accurate than
my notes would have been. I have a few additions. First the commitment
of the committee to conduct a full and open search for a new school
superintendent is obvious. Official minutes of all meetings are to be
posted on the schools website as soon as possible. Below is a draft of
the meeting minutes as they have not been formally approved. There is
going to be another subcommittee meeting soon to determine names of consultants
to send the RFP to that was drafted at this meeting. There is another
subcommittee meeting tentatively scheduled for April 10th at 10 am at
the Community Safety Building.
Best, Colleen

Agenda Items:
Joani LaMachia moved

Paul Schlictman seconded motion. Minutes approved 3-0.
Reviewed the Request
for Proposal for consultant services that was used
in 1993 to assist the school committee in the Superintendent search.
The 1993 RFP was used as starting point for writing the RFP that will
be
sent out for consultant services. Changes were made in some of the
introductory wording, additions and deletions were made in the minimum
criteria section of the RFP, and additions and deletions were made in
the comparative criteria section of the RFP.
The RFP was written
with the goal of attracting a broad range of firms
who may be interested in this opportunity.
Motion made by Joani
LaMachia and seconded by Paul Schlictman to present
the reworded RFP to the full committee for review and approval. Motion
passed 3-0.
As directed by the
full School Committee at the 3/9/04 meeting we
changed the timeline so that the consultant with community input would
write the superintendent job description. See attached timeline.
