On Wednesday night, the Antioch Unified School District provided an update on its search for a new superintendent where they say they have narrowed it down to a single candidate.
Although the District did not name the candidate, they did say negotiations were on-going.
The district reported out of closed session the following:
- The Board has narrowed the search to a finalist but no decision on actual employment has been made until the completion of negotiations on the terms of employment. The final decision would come with approval of the new superintendent’s contract which should be scheduled on or before the June 22, 2016 Board meeting. No candidate names will be released pending agreement on the contract and review of any additional information that may come to the attention of the Board.
- All those interviewed have been notified of developments which have occurred to date.
- Negotiations with the finalist will occur between now and the Board meeting. The Board will ask its attorney to develop a proposed contract with Board President Diane Gibson-Gray and Board Member Debra Vinson.
The school district is seeking to find a replacement for Donald Gill who was placed on paid administrative leave in November of 2015. Stephanie Anello was named the interim superintendent of the District while the Board conducted a search for Gills replacement.
