(Geronimo) – Naming a superintendent finalist for the Navarro ISD could come as early as tonight.
The Navarro ISD Board of Trustees will meet during a special meeting to conduct interviews of applicants for the superintendent position. Those interviews will take place behind closed doors. Tonight’s agenda also allows for the consideration or possible action of naming a finalist for the job.
The district looks to officially fill the position of former Superintendent Wendi Russell who retired last spring. The position had been filled by Acting-Superintendent Luke Morales, but the board announced earlier this year that Morales would be returning to his deputy superintendent position and that the board would formerly begin a search for its next top administrator.
The district is currently under the leadership of Interim Superintendent Dee Carter. Carter served as the longtime superintendent prior to Russell’s appointment.
The special meeting gets underway today at 5 p.m. in the Navarro Intermediate School’s Administrative Conference Room.
