Churchillsd Board Meetings Zoom Meeting
The meeting began with the call to order and confirmation that the agenda was posted according to open meeting law. Public comment procedures were outlined. The board subsequently reviewed and unanimously approved the posted agenda. Key new business involved the Superintendent search consultants, Honor and Educate HR, who briefed the board on the application review team's work. They presented information on five recommended finalists for preliminary interviews: Natalie Burgess, Levi Collins, Blake Cooper, Michael Walker, and Brett Zanto. The consultants detailed the backgrounds, experience, and academic qualifications of all applicants considered, noting that the recommended finalists most closely aligned with the district's specific leadership profile and needs. Discussion ensued regarding the next steps for the interview process, with board members expressing strong support for comprehensive site visits, including interactions with students and staff, which may necessitate scheduling the subsequent interviews and site visits over multiple days.
