Gray said that Ms. White was not ignored. She was considered for the jobs and in some instances even additional consideration was given to Ms. White. Mr. Ron Rimbert stated that he and his wife are coming to the Board first because they want to get consideration from the Board before they think about any legal action. Ms. Melissa Ballard asked how the committees are formed and if there is a pamphlet of interview questions for non-certified candidates. Mr. Gray explained that positions are posted and a committee is constructed by the site administrator.
Most committees depend on the position.
A classified position would have representatives of the bargainning unit, employees from that particular building, and a site administrator on the committee with written questions to be asked of each candidate. The committee makes a recommendation to the building principal, who makes a recommendation to the superintendent, who then makes the recommendation to the Board. Interview questions are put together by the hiring committees. Marshall stated that the Board should be open to these issues and be responsive and appreciative to the community's concerns. Ms. White asked if it would be acceptable for her to put her particular case and concerns in writing for the Board to review.
