Dear GUSD families and staff:

I'm writing to share with you that the Board of Education will hold a special meeting tomorrow night, Wednesday, February 8, at 6 pm, as we begin the search process for our District's new Superintendent.  The special board meeting is an opportunity for the Board of Education to meet publicly with Leadership Associates, the firm we have hired to lead the search for our new Superintendent.  The meeting is open to the public. At the special meeting, the following items will be discussed:
 

1. Leadership Associates will provide an overview of the search process to the Board and the public.
2. Protocols for the board and the search firm will be reviewed.
3. Leadership Associates will lead a discussion about the online survey process to solicit input from staff and members of the public for help in selecting the next GUSD Superintendent, and will present the survey for review. ** The survey will be available in English and Spanish, and will be available on the new Superintendent Search webpage launching on the GUSD website soon.**
4. Finally, Leadership Associates will present a timeline for the search to the Board for discussion and approval.

You can watch the meeting on the District's YouTube channel or attend the meeting in-person at the District Office (7810 Arroyo Circle).  The agenda is available online.  Attendees can also make public comment at the in-person meeting.

Many thanks,
Linda Piceno
Board President
Gilroy Unified School District
