Dr. William Hite has been selected as the new superintendent for Philadelphia. His start date has not been announced as they are in contract negotiations and his current position in Princes Georges County Maryland requires a four-month advance notice in order for him to receive his severance package. Chief Recovery Officer Thomas Knudsen has indicated he is willing to stay on in his position (at a salary of $25,000/month) for a bit longer until the new superintendent can start. The Committee of Seventy has requested that the SRC release the "broad parameters" of the new superintendent contract before it is finalized. SRC commissioner and UC neighbor Wendell Pritchett responded that the SRC plans to make the process as transparent as possible and release further contract information in the near future. http://articles.philly.com/2012-06-28/news/32441984_1_new-superintendent-contract-process-bits-and-pieces Amara On Sun, Jun 24, 2012 at 6:48 PM, Amara Rockar <aroc...@gmail.com> wrote: > Come out and meet the two finalists for superintendent!
