The Orinda Union School District board of trustees voted unanimously Oct. 5 to select Hazard, Young, Attea & Associates (HYA) to conduct a search for its new superintendent. The board will be filling the position left open by the upcoming retirement of Dr. Joe Jaconette in January 2016 after eight years of service to the district and the community.
The board selected HYA after thoroughly interviewing three different search firms during two separate board meetings, which were open to the public. HYA has recently conducted several successful local superintendent searches including Piedmont Unified School District, Belmont-Redwood Shores School District, Ross School District and South San Francisco Unified School District.
The board and HYA expressed their commitment to a comprehensive process with robust opportunities for public input. The community is invited to take part in this process as it is unveiled in the coming weeks through town hall meetings, an online survey, meetings held with key stakeholder groups and school board meetings. For more information, visit http://www.orindaschools.org/SuperintendentSearch.
A Community Forum is scheduled at 7 p.m. Monday, Oct. 26 at the District Office, Conference Room A, 8 Altarinda Road.
