Several applicants have applied for the St. Joseph School Board vacancy left by the resignation of Dr. Dan Colgan last week.
According to board secretary Debbie Consolver letters of intent have already been received by Eric Bruder, Matthew Brock, Jeff Bird, Brian Cronk and David Mason.
Applicants wanting to apply to be considered for school board have until 4 p.m. March 23rd to submit their letters of intent to the Superintendent’s Office.
Consolver said after the closing date the Board will review all of the applicants at the April 13th Board Meeting.
She said once the board has reviewed the applicants they will conduct interviews to determine the best match for the vacancy. The term will end April 11, 2016.
Consolver expects the board to make its decision during the May 11th board meeting but said it is possible that a special meeting could be called to speed up the process. However, according to the district’s website the vote will be made in open session.
Individuals wanting to submit letters to the Board of Education can deliver or mail it to:
