Auburn school board kept its promise

The incumbent Auburn school board members' re-election platform was based on doing an outside search for superintendent.

They said they would do the right thing by ordering a proper search for our new superintendent and they have kept their word.

It's a big job and although there may be qualified candidates in our midst, it makes sense to do whatever is necessary to ensure the best possible candidates have been reviewed and considered. It's nice to see Mike Stearns and Ginny Kent standing by their campaign promises.
