(KAIR)--The search for a new Superintendent of Schools for Brown County's USD 430 takes another step forward.
That follows an assessment of the matter during Monday night's special meeting of the Board of Education for the South Brown County Schools.
During the session, current Superintendent Dr. Steve Davies introduced to the board Dr. Brian Jordan, Director of Leadership Recruitment Services for the Kansas Association of School Boards.
Jordan supplied the board members with documentation outlining the KASB's approach when seeking a new superintendent for a school district.
The process includes four phases, outlined in-depth by Jordan for the Board.
He explained that the KASB each year recruits 30 to 35 superintendents, leaving the organization experienced in the process.
Following Jordan's presentation, the Board of Education voted unanimously to utilize Jordan, through the KASB, to head-up the search for a new superintendent.
The need to fill the role comes as Davies plans to retire at the end of the 2016-2017 school year, ending 16-years in that role for the South Brown County Schools.
He announced his decision in July.
