ROYERSFORD — After spending several months vetting candidates, the Spring-Ford
Area School District has found a finalist in its search for a superintendent to
replace its long-standing chief: current Chambersburg Area School District
Superintendent Joe Padasak.
But as with the rest of the search process, school board members and officials
do not want to make the decision alone on who will replace Superintendent
Marsha R. Hurda. They want the community's full input on the person they will
choose to lead the district.
After narrowing its choice down to Padasak, the district is inviting the public
for a meet-and-greet session at the Spring-Ford Intermediate School on
Wednesday from 5:30 to 7 p.m.
During the meeting, residents will be able to ask Padasak, who has served as
Chambersburg's superintendent since 2006, education-related questions they
would like answered, according to a Spring-Ford press release.
Jon J. Rednak, a consultant for Ray and Associates, the firm that has assisted
Spring-Ford in looking for a new top administrator since late last year after
Hurda announced her intention to retire in July, will read submitted questions
and invite Padasak to respond.
Following the question and answer session, attendees will be able to interact
with Padasak personally, the release said.
Prior to the meet and greet session, Padasak will get together with district
administrators and tour several of Spring-Ford's buildings, including the High
School 10-12 Center, Eighth-Grade Center, Intermediate School and Upper
Providence Elementary school.
School board members believe a decision about the next superintendent will be
announced sometime in April.
If the public is interested in submitting a question to Padasak via the
district's website, they can visit www.spring-ford.net. Questions will be
accepted until 12 p.m. Wednesday. Questions can also be submitted the night of
the meeting.
