Hello HSD3 Families: The school board has now gone into a closed session to review our superintendent finalists' background checks. So, we have now made the 2 videos of the 6 finalist interviews public for your viewing (dated Jan 13 & Jan 15). You can watch them here: https://www.youtube.com/@HSD3Boardmtg Please note that we experienced technical difficulties when recording the video on Jan 13. There are 2 brief audio outages, including one at the very beginning of the video. We apologize for the inconvenience, but audio is present for the majority of the video. Once the school board is back in open session, you will be able to view a live feed (at the same link above) of their discussion on the finalists. We encourage you to share your feedback in person or through online comments.

The board will be interviewing these candidates from approximately 5:45-8:45PM Wed evening. The interviews will be recorded (as the interviews with the previous 3 candidates were on Monday).
