LATHAM from A1 “It’s not like we’re put- ting it off , this is just how long it takes to get it right,” said board mem-ber and Latham parent Taylor Wil- hour as discussion broke out among the board about the timeliness of this report. “We just want to make the right decision whether we maintain the building or we close the building. I want the best information out there so that we can make that decision,” said Sullivan. To start the board meet- ing, Latham parents Mel- anie Stuhlmiller and Ash- ley Rigel spoke during the public comment to urge the board to make a decision as soon as possible. “I just really ask that in- stead of this slow, painful peel of the band aid, we just get it over with what- ever your decision is,” said Stuhlmiller who also serves as an EA and Librarian at Latham. “And not a linger- ing, we’re going to wait one more year and reassess. Or a we’re going to wait until February to make a deci- sion. We kind of just, do your due diligence, go over everything, hear everybody, like I know you guys will and make your decision.” “Our kids’ education is limbo and our lives are kind of in limbo,” said Rigel.

COM School board considers options for full-time superintendent By Zach Silva zsilva@cgsentinel.com Th e South Lane School District superintendent search will be at the heart of next week’s (Monday Oct. 15) meeting. Th e school board is faced with two choices: work with Oregon School Boards Association (OSBA) to fi nd a full- time superintendent who would start next school year or bring back inter- im superintendent Larry Sullivan for one more year. Aft er board members voiced their approval for Sullivan to stay at Sep- tember’s school board meeting, the twice-retired Sullivan announced at last week’s meeting that he would like to serve one more year. “I’m certainly at a stage of my career that I look forward to retirement and do some things that are really important to me. But at the same time, the same reason I came here is the same reason I would want to stay: you have a terrifi c staff ,” he said. “A terrifi c cabinet and lead- ership in the district and principals; the teachers are phenomenal. It would be hard for me to walk away from that.” Board chair Alan Baas expressed interest in keep- ing Sullivan for another year while making sure that the board stays true to their word. “I remind us that we have told the district that we will move forward as quickly as we feel rea-son- able with the superinten- dent search,” said Baas, adding, “I would lean towards keeping Larry and thoroughly examining and making sure that we’re ful- fi lling our responsibilities towards the district.” Th e sentiment was echoed across the board. “I’ve done several searches for superinten- dents and it’s very, very time-consuming,” said board member Sherry Duerst-Higgins. “And it seems like we have a full plate every month so it would be my recommen- dation that we keep you for two years and then we search so we can fulfi ll and continue what we started this year. “We had a very diffi cult year and we’re rolling down that hill now.” To all who attended and gave of their time, talents and resources for the 2018 COTTAGE GROVE MAYOR’S BALL We offer a heartfelt THANK YOU!
