CONWAY — Although Superintendent Kevin Richard isn’t scheduled to retire until June of next year, there’s already a growing fear among SAU 9 Board members that they may not be able to find his successor by then. There was enough concern last Thursday that members moved up the search timeline from August to next month.

Barrett Christina, the executive director of the Concord-based New Hampshire School Boards Association, attended Thursday’s meeting in the Professional Development Center at the SAU 9 office. On hand to provide an update on the rules and responsibilities of a New Hampshire school board member and to provide an overview of the right-to-know law, Christina admitted to being taken aback when he saw the evening’s agenda which listed “superintendent timeline search” on it.
