Board delays decision on superintendent

By GAZETTE STAFF Saturday, April 4, 2009

WHITEWATER — The Whitewater School Board was expected to select a new superintendent Thursday, but the finalists for the job are so strong the board wanted more time, said President Chuck Nass.

The school board likely will meet again next week, he said. An exact meeting date has not yet been set, he said.

Being considered for the district's top post are:

-- Suzanne Zentner, associate superintendent for teaching and learning in the Isaac School District in Phoenix.

-- Dennis Pauli, the assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction in the Round Lake Area Schools District 116 in Round Lake, Ill.

Each spent a day in the Whitewater schools before a final interview with school board members and administrators this week. Zentner's visit was Tuesday. Pauli's visit was Wednesday.

The new superintendent is slated to start July 1.
