Three vie for Southeastern superintendent post

By Megan Gildow | Friday, May 29, 2009, 12:52 PM

SOUTH CHARLESTON - Three educators will be interviewed in the coming weeks by Southeastern staff and school board members to be the district’s next superintendent.

Greenon Assistant Superintendent Tammy Carnahan, Holgate Local Schools principal Bruce Kidder and middle school principal David Shea, of Southeastern schools in Chillicothe, are the three finalists for the position, according to Treasurer Brad McKee. The three finalists were selected from a pool of 19 candidates.

The district’s former superintendent, John Abdella, retired in December and the position has since been filled by interim superintendents, currently Brian O’Mara.

The three finalists will met with staff members June 1 for the first part of the final stage of interviews, said McKee.

“Everyone’s going to be represented,” he said of that staff interviews.

Then they will meet with the board for the final interviews June 8.

“Hopefully, we’re going to hire a new superintendent at the June (16) board meeting,” he said.
