Community Meetings Seek Feedback for Superintendent Search

Oklahoma City, OK – The community is being asked to share what qualities are important in the next Oklahoma City Public Schools Superintendent. Input from parents, students, teachers, staff and the community will be collected at four meetings this April and presented to the Oklahoma City Public Schools Board of Education.

The community meetings will be held at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, April 22, in John Marshall High School’s auditorium, 12201 N. Portland; at 6 p.m. on Thursday, April 24, in Douglass High School’s auditorium, 900 N. Martin Luther King Ave.; and at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, April 29, in U.S. Grant High School’s auditorium, 5016 S. Pennsylvania. A fourth meeting will be conducted in Spanish at 6 p.m. on Monday, April 28, in Capitol Hill High School’s auditorium, 500 SW 36th Street.

As an independent non-profit working on behalf of the community, the Oklahoma City Public Schools Foundation is conducting these public forums to insure input from the community is collected and presented to the School Board. In addition to the meetings, the Foundation is also asking for feedback on their website’s online survey at www.okckids.com/super. Those who cannot attend one of the community meetings are asked to share their thoughts and opinions via the online survey.

Once the community meetings are complete, feedback from the meetings and the online survey will be compiled and presented to the School Board. The report will also be made available on the Foundation’s website, www.okckids.com.
