New MontCo superintendent to be found by same firm that found Weast

The same firm that turned up Superintendent Jerry Weast will find the next head of Montgomery County Public Schools.

The school board voted unanimously Tuesday morning to award the contract to Hazard, Young, Attea & Associates, which has completed more than 800 superintendent searches, new Board President Christopher Barclay said. “They have a proven track record of conducting comprehensive outreach to the public,” Barclay said.
