“They interviewed eight out of the 21 applications and of those eight, three have been invited back for a second interview,” Kirby said. “The board was very pleased with the quality of the candidates that have applied for the position.”
The community will have a chance to meet with the candidates 6 p.m. Monday in the library of Valley View High School, 6027 Farmersville Pike. The meeting will be immediately followed by a brief reception.
“We want to give the staff and the community an opportunity to hear from each of these three candidates, even ask some questions. We will follow that with a reception and give the community and staff the opportunity to give some feedback to board members as to how they would appraise these candidates,” Kirby said.
