Dr. Hoover sent the following letter out to Mount Hebron staff, parents, guardians and caregivers on Friday.
Dear Mt. Hebron Staff and Parents/Guardians/Caregivers:
As you may be aware, the search for a new principal at Mt. Hebron Middle School has not yet
produced a candidate that the Board and I feel demonstrate the proper skill set for this critical
juncture in the school's reorganization. I officially begin my duties on July 1 and intend to make
this my top priority. Although my official start date is not until next week, I have already
committed additional district resources and personnel to the successful opening of Mount Hebron in
September.
I fully anticipate that I will be able to communicate a solution to the school's administrative needs
by the week of July 9th. I want to re-assure you that this does not mean we are waiting to address
the curriculum and program needs. Those needs are well on their way to completion using our
current staff and resources.
The district's continued goal is to be ready in September for a smooth and successful school
opening.
Your patience in this matter is much appreciated.
Sincerely,
Clarence C. Hoover
Interim Superintendent
