No more back-room hiring in Big Hollow School District 38
Liberty Leader Lennie Jarratt sends us this report from Big Hollow School District 38 in Ingleside, IL:
The Big Hollow Taxpayers have won a small victory. On Monday, the school board backed down in hiring one of their own as the technology director. The pressure brought about by district residents in this situation forced the board to reopen the process.
Lennie concludes with some recommendations that he’s making directly to the board:
- Post all candidates resumes on the district website
- Interview all candidates in public
- Have a first round of written questions/answers open to the public
- Hold all second round of interviews on 1 day
- Seclude candidates so they cannot hear the others answers
- Interview each candidate in open session
By handling the process in the open it will show an openness. If not, any person who finally is hired will be tainted with hints of secrecy and a corrupt process.
Congratulations, Lennie and the Big Hollow Taxpayers!
