Navarro ISD looks to officially hire superintendent finalist during tonight’s special meeting

(Geronimo) – The Navarro ISD Board of Trustees tonight is expected to officially hire and welcome its new superintendent of schools. The school board last month unanimously approved a lone finalist in its search to replace current Superintendent Dee Carter.
 
During the end of that search process, the school board selected Wendi Russell to the position. Although Russell was named the finalist, the district according to state law could not officially hire Russell until waiting at least a total of 21 days. That waiting period has now obviously arrived allowing trustees to take action during tonight’s special meeting.
 
Russell currently serves as the interim superintendent for Pecos Barstow Toyah ISD located in West Texas. Russell is a 30-year veteran in the field of education and is originally from Sherman located in North Texas. In addition to Pecos, she has also previously served as an assistant superintendent in VanAlstyne ISD.

The special meeting gets underway at 6 p.m. today in the Navarro Junior High School Library.
