The Evansville Vanderburgh Board of School Trustees announced tonight that it would interview six candidates who have expressed their interest in the soon-to-be vacant school board seat at a specially-called public meeting on December 2.
EVSC School Board President Sally Becker announced her resignation during the November 18 meeting of the Board of School Trustees. She is moving from Evansville in order to be nearer family, leaving her seat on the School Board open for the remainder of her term. Her last meeting will be on December 16.
Chris Kiefer, School Board vice president, said tonight that there were 16 interested individuals who submitted their information to the board for consideration to fill Becker’s seat in District 2 from January through December 2014. That list of candidates was narrowed to six during the School Board’s executive session this afternoon. Kiefer said the six candidates will be contacted and apprised of the next meeting and the public interview process. Letters will be sent to the remaining candidates thanking them for their submission.
The School Board will meet in executive session briefly at 5 p.m. on December 2, just prior to the 5:30 p.m. public meeting in the EVSC Board Room, located in the Administration Building at 951 Walnut Street, Evansville
