Hillard Out

Temple City Unified's Superintendent was given a polite shove out of the door Friday. Joan Hillard has served as the top administrator since 1999.

I'm doing a follow-up on the story. I've posted below the press release sent out late Friday afternoon.

At a Special Meeting held on February 6, 2008, the Temple City Unified School District Board of Education took action not to extend the Superintendent’s contract beyond June 30, 2008. The Board recognized Dr. Joan Hillard’s steadfast leadership and dedicated years of service, serving as Superintendent since 1999.

The Board will immediately begin the Superintendent search process.
