Dr. Denita Dowell-Reavis
The Alexander County Board of Education has scheduled six candidates to be interviewed for the position of Superintendent today. Dr. Jennifer Hefner is retiring at the end of the school year.
The board will interview candidates in Statesville. The board approved on February 26th for the Masonboro Group of Wilmington to assist with the search for a cost of $18,500. The group’s timeline, submitted to the board, had said they would have a candidate selected and contracted by May 6th.
The chairman of the Superintendent Search Committee, Matt Reese says due to circumstances out of the control of Masonboro, the interviews were moved out from April 29-30 to today.
