St. Louis Public Schools Superintendent Diana Bourisaw will hold a news conference today at 1 p.m. to address the district’s new superintendent search. A few moments ago, she released this statement:
Good morning,
By now you have heard that the SAB will be conducting a superintendent search. I respect their decision and have chosen not to apply for the position. While I initially accepted this position as an interim superintendent, I have grown to love this district – the children, family, staff and community. I have learned from the quality, commitment and care that is given by staff, and to love the beautiful souls of our children.
During these next few months I assure you that I will remain focused on the needs of the district and our children. I will continue to support you in your efforts to improve teaching and learning for our students. You deserve no less.
Diana M. Bourisaw, Ph.D.
Superintendent of Schools
The news conference will be held in Room 108 at Central Office, 801 N. 11th Street.
