ULSTER
Last week Dr. Charles Khoury, District
Superintendent of Ulster BOCES, updated
the Highland School Board on the search
for a new Superintendent for Highland
after the recent announcement by current
Superintendent, Deborah Haab, that she
would be leaving her position this month.
In July Khoury presented to the board
an overview of the process, pointing out
last week that the next step “is to finalize
the content of the vacancy announcement
that will be used to get the word out.” He
invited the board to offer their input
concerning the announcement. He said
his communications department at
BOCES could assist the search using
social media.
