Resignation of Gallup school head Dowden accepted
Professor Dowden, two years superintendent, submitted his resignation to the Gallup Schools Board via the Herald on Monday night. The board accepted the resignation after earlier rejecting his contract renewal. Two candidates, Prof. Smith of Globe Arizona and Prof. Kerr of Pueblo Colorado, were shortlisted. Other resignations and staff moves followed, with infant and first grade reassignments and new hires from Kansas and Texas. Bond funds from a recent election remain unreturned, threatening this year's building program. A special meeting will address heating upgrades at the high school.
