Two more candidates for interim superintendent
The Dayton school board hopes to decide this week who will lead the city school district while it searches for a permanent replacement for departing Superintendent Percy Mack.
Mack leaves after June 30 to become superintendent in Columbia, S.C. The candidates for interim superintendent are:
—Jane McGee Rafal, the district’s executive director of elementary education. Rafal returned for a second stint with Dayton schools in 2005. She formerly was a principal and administrator here before becoming assistant superintendent in Warren, Ohio. She later won the top job there and then went on to Mesa, Ariz., as assistant superintendent.
—Norris Brown, recently retired superintendent of Jefferson Twp. schools. Brown, a 41 year educator, returned to Jefferson in 2003 after retiring from Middletown schools. Brown was a teacher, principal, coach and assistant superintendent in Jefferson for 27 years before a 10-year stint in Middletown as pupil personnel director and interim superintendent.
—Kurt T. Stanic, who last year retired as superintendent of North Olmsted schools near Cleveland. Stanic also served as superintendent in Parma, Euclid and Black River schools. Stanic is graduate Wittenberg University in Springfield.
—Ronald L. Victor, chief business manager for Toledo Public Schools since 2007. He is the former superintendent of Garfield schools and business manager of Euclid schools. He was a candidate for superintendent in Westerville schools near Columbus last year.
School board President Yvonne Isaacs said the board could name someone as early as Thursday if a consensus is reached during a closed meeting tonight.
