The Washington Community School District School Board will meet in special closed sessions tonight and tomorrow per Iowa Code to evaluate an individual whose hiring is being considered. The board will have a total of four special meetings.

Superintendent Dr. Mike Jorgensen states an announcement will be made at Thursday’s school board meeting as to who is selected as finalists. The tentative plan is then to have the two finalists brought back for interviews later in the month. Interviews will be conducted by a group made up of school board members, staff members, community members, parents and others.

This fall, Jorgensen announced his plan to retire at the end of the school year.
