Article on district leadership retreat

We get this from the recent AZ Republic article on the subject:

Higley Unified School District Superintendent Denise Birdwell met with board members in a two-day retreat over the weekend and agreed that the district’s focus over the next few years should be on resources, academics, personnel and communication.

As a whole, the five-member board told district officials where they wanted to go in the future and prioritized the ways in which to get there.

“From my frame of mind, I don’t want to go into the how,” Board member Paul Howell said. “Our job is to provide direction and let the staff determine how that direction is accomplished.”
