Districts having a bench is a good thing, about 1/3 of hires are from within, rather than going for a search. #schcomss0208 public process of hiring, posted agenda, quorum of committee, them up to the committee to do so;
If you are transparent, say what you want and then do it, that works; problems arise when you don't follow through #schcomss0208 the public needs to follow along without getting surprised
Underway about 15 which may not be all of them; #schcomss0208 no dwindling of applications for open positions, some in central admin didn't jump last year, some are this year. Position here wouldn't see the competition other open spots have, geographic/size district etc.
