Superintendent Focus Group
Superintendent Search Process Underway
Parents and Community Invited to Participate
Dr. John Phelan is retiring after 11 years of service to the Hopkinton School District. The Hopkinton School Committee has engaged the services of the New England School Development Council (NESDEC) to assist them in the search process for a new Superintendent of Schools.
An integral part of the process involves parent and community participation and input. NESDEC will facilitate two community-wide focus groups to gather input about the attributes, experience, and knowledge that the new Superintendent should possess, as well as to identify the immediate tasks and challenges which the new Superintendent should address.
Focus group sessions are designed to last approximately 60 – 90 minutes. Parents and community members are invited to attend a focus group session on either:
Wednesday, 1/5/11 in the High School Cafeteria from 7:00 – 9:00 pm
(snow date Wednesday, 1/19/11, same time and location)
or
Monday, 1/10/11 at the Hopkinton Senior Center from 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
(snow date Monday, 1/24/11, same time and location)
To better accommodate all schedules, both a morning and an evening session have been scheduled. The Hopkinton School Committee and NESDEC strongly urge parents and community members to participate.
