Special school board meeting

Dr. Michael Thorsland has been named interim superintendent of education for the Oconee public school district, in the aftermath of the retirement announcement of Dr. Michael Lucas. The Lucas retirement is timed for this Friday. In the meantime, however, there is the matter of a “letter of agreement” for the interim superintendent. And that letter of agreement is an agenda item for a special trustees meeting tomorrow evening in Walhalla. One other personnel-related item is on the agenda for the meeting. The trustees are also to consider employment changes and recommendations in what’s planned as an executive session.
