About 20 community residents gathered at USC Aiken for a Public Education Partners session to propose traits for a new Aiken County Public Schools leader. They emphasized visibility in schools and the community, open doors, clear vision, and personal acquaintance with teachers as key qualities for the retiring superintendent Dr Beth Everitt.
Participants prioritized leadership and communication as key qualities for the superintendent. Eight broad categories emerged: strategic focus, communication, strong leadership, organizational and instructional management, treating staff as professionals, experience, fiscal management, and openness to diversity. The report, by PEP, will be posted online and a detailed piece will run after a board meeting. Applications close April 30. PEP will present findings to the School Board.
