The search for a new school superintendent for the Ada Exempted Village School District is progressing as planned, according to board of education President Ron Fleming.
The search process was organized in January, progressed through a 6-week recruitment period, several community and staff focus group sessions, a first round of interviews with eleven candidates, and has now moved to the next stage, where the board has chosen three candidates as finalists.
Each of the finalists has been invited to attend a "meet the candidate" event from 5:30-7:30pm on Tuesday, March 19 in the Auditorium. Any staff, parents or other community members interested in meeting the finalists are invited to attend. The finalists are: John Massara, Julie Simmons and Andrew Sprang.
The Liberty Township Park Board will meet at 7:30 p.m. on Monday, March 25, rather than on the usual third Monday of the month, due to scheduling conflicts.
The Board of Education of the Ada Exempted Village Schools have scheduled three close-door executive sessions for the purpose of hiring a superintendent on March 12, 13 and 14.
The March 5 meeting of the Village of Ada Council included a request by Viva Maria restaurant to create a drive–through window, added law enforcement staffing at the June 14-15 fire convention to be held in Ada and details on the 2024 Village paving program.
