Letter to everyone:

Dr. Henry Roman has been invaluable in this process, involving the community and leading the board through the process.  We give big thanks to him and all his hard work.

The board has decided on the top three candidates (see attached) to come in for the next stage in the process.  The guidelines for the process were laid out by McPherson Jacobson and have been an easy process to follow.  

Our Candidates are: (In no particular order)

*   **Dr. Patrick J Krumholz -** [**https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GuI_p9plcUiSKZHG\_1Uo-Fx4w9NtjRoZ/view**](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GuI_p9plcUiSKZHG\_1Uo-Fx4w9NtjRoZ/view)
*   **Mr. Robert P Howard -** [**https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bEnaJDtiwtlUmuD_vWWa1OgJY91bL6-C/view**](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bEnaJDtiwtlUmuD_vWWa1OgJY91bL6-C/view)

Dear Parents and Guardians:

Good news! We have a permanent Kindergarten teacher. Ms. Kayla Griego, one of our 3rd grade teachers, has informed us that she would like to work with the Kindergarten class. In just 2 days, I have seen good behavior and positive learning taking place. She will also benefit from a Para educator stationed in the classroom. Mrs. Knight, 3rd grade teacher, has welcomed Ms. Griego's third grade students into her classroom. 

Mrs. Knight is very capable of taking this assignment head on because she is extremely knowledgeable and very skilled. 

Should you have any questions please feel free to contact myself, Megan Gurule or the aforementioned teachers. 



Respectfully,

/s/ Michael J Moore

Superintendent & Interim Principal
