Final screening committee member named

GLASGOW — The screening committee to review superintendent applications for the Glasgow School District now has its seventh and final member.

Joan Norris, a supervisor for Kentucky Child Protective Services, was named the minority member to the group Tuesday night by Phil Eason, senior educational consultant with Leadership Strategies Group, the firm hired by the school board to facilitate the search process for a new superintendent.

Norris has two children in the Glasgow school system, a junior and an eighth-grader, and she has been a member of the community since 1991. She told Eason she came to the meeting for parents primarily for fact-finding purposes rather than seeking a place on the committee.

“Actually, I just came to get information,” Norris said.

But no other interested parents showed up for the meeting Tuesday night, so Norris agreed to become the final member.

Eason briefly reviewed procedures with Norris and gave her additional written information on the screening process. Members of the screening committee will meet March 2, which is also the deadline for candidates to fill out applications online at www.leadershipstrategies.com.

School board members will meet with Eason during a special-called meeting Thursday night at 7 p.m. at the district’s central office for training and to develop superintendent position criteria to be used by the screening committee when reviewing applications.
