Yesterday, the first interviews were held at the District Services Center for two of the four candidates chosen by BWP and Associates.
Michael J. Thomas, of Colorado Springs District 11 was interviewed first, followed by Steve Troen of Minnesota District 196. The applicants were asked 14 questions by school board members and were allowed to ask the board questions before concluding. Each applicant was given 75 minutes to complete the interview and will find out if they were chosen to return for a second interview sometime next week.
Efe Agbamu of St. Paul Public Schools and Ben Barton of Princeton School District will be interviewed tomorrow at 3:00 and 4:15pm at the District Services Center in Prior Lake. The public is welcome to quietly attend. For more information on these candidates, see the previous post “Superintendent Search Update.”
