Order #80 - Motion Passed:  "Good morning. I'd like to call this meeting of the Jefferson County Board of Education to order and ask for a motion to recess and reconvene in executive session for the purpose of reviewing the applications of candidates for the position of superintendent. The Board and the screening committee will receive a presentation from our search consultants from McPherson and Jacobson then discuss the applications. As we have agreed previously, neither the screening committee nor the Board will publicly discuss the identities of the applicants until we announce the finalists next month. Do I have a motion?" The recommendation passed with a motion by Mrs. Carol Ann Haddad and a second by Mr. Larry Hujo.

The executive session was adjourned by consensus and Board members returned to open session at approximately 3:20 p.m.

Chairman Stephen Imhoff made the following statement: "The Board and Screening Committee identified six candidates as semifinalists. These candidates will be interviewed on Wednesday and Friday of next week, May 25 and 27. Once those interviews are completed, we plan to announce the names of the finalists on June 1. May I have a motion to adjourn?"
