'Questions need to be asked why this current board of inexperienced trustees announced the replacement of its superintendent just five months after taking office.'
On March 10, the board of education announcement that Superintendent Cindy Heitman had left the district and was being replaced and on March 11, two highly respected trustees resigned. These events should leave the public asking the question why.
A board of education has specific responsibilities, one of which is to demonstrate it understands its governance role. This role is extremely complex. It requires working as a team that draws upon and respects the skills and experience each member brings to it. It requires supporting and respecting its superintendent, its administrative team and its employees and it requires creating a positive organizational culture.
