Update on Principal Searches

Elementary Principals: We have completed the screening process of 87 applicants for the elementary principal searches. On Wednesday, a panel of 2-3 teachers from Glenwood, Hartshorn, and Deerfield participated in a panel to interview the internal candidates who applied for the elementary principal position. On Friday, administrators interviewed external candidates who had been narrowed down through our paper screening process of the 87 applicants. On April 1st, the committee will interview the top 3 internal and top 3 -4 external candidates. As Mr. Wolfe, Principal of South Mountain, announced his next steps yesterday, we will include South Mountain staff in this process. We have interviewed many internal and external candidates who are highly qualified, caring, and enthusiastic educational leaders looking for career advancement and opportunities in Millburn. After we hold these interviews on Tuesday, should there be an extended need to interview candidates further to find the best candidates for our schools, we will do that. 

Middle School Principal: To maintain consistency with the Middle School's leadership, Dr. Sack will continue as the interim principal for the remainder of the school year and next year. We will open the search again for a permanent principal during the next school year. 

High School Principal and Vice-Principal: We have posted the positions for the High School Principal and Vice-Principal. We have received many applicants and look forward to beginning the interview process as soon as possible. The process will include meeting with staff, students, and community members to learn what they would like to see in Millburn High School's next leaders.
