Give Your Input on the Search for a New Schools Superintendent

The following letter was sent to us by Amber Yusuf and Ron Schulhof, President and Vice President of the Scarsdale School Board:

Dear Scarsdale Community,

The search for the next Superintendent of Schools is underway and we hope you will take the opportunity to provide your input! We are committed to conducting an inclusive, thoughtful and comprehensive process. The Board of Education has planned for extensive community engagement, including focus groups, community forums, and a survey.

The Board welcomes your input as feedback from the school community will be used to develop a set of search specifications to create a Leadership Profile. This Leadership Profile will serve as a guiding framework for recruiting and vetting candidates.

The survey is conducted by a search firm, which ensures that your individual responses are kept anonymous. The survey is available in English, Spanish, Mandarin and Portuguese.

The survey is available online here and will remain open until September 23rd at 5 p.m.

We also invite you to attend any of the three community forums, on the following dates:

● Wednesday, September 14, 2022, at 9:30 a.m. (Scarsdale Public Library, Scott Room)
● Monday, September 19, 2022, at 7:00 p.m. (Scarsdale High School, Room 170-172)
● Thursday, September 22, 2022, at 7:00 p.m. (via Zoom.)

Whether you attend a community forum, complete the survey, or do both, the Board hopes you will take the opportunity to provide your input! Learn more here.

With thanks,
Amber Yusuf, Board of Education President
Ron Schulhof, Board of Education Vice President
