1220 - EMPLOYMENT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT

The Governing Board vests the primary responsibility for administration of this ESC in the Superintendent. The appointment of the Superintendent is, therefore, one of the most important functions the Governing Board can perform.

Whenever the position of Superintendent shall be vacant, the Governing Board shall appoint a Superintendent as chief executive officer.

The Governing Board shall appoint a Superintendent who meets the qualifications established by the Governing Board.

The Superintendent so appointed shall devote himself/herself exclusively to the duties of his/her office.

Any candidate’s intentional misstatement of fact material to his/her qualification for employment or the determination of his/her salary shall be considered by this Governing Board to constitute grounds for his/her dismissal.

Prior to employment, the candidate selected shall also pass a background check performed by the Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation and/or the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
