— The Douglas County Board of Education chose Erin Kane to be the school district’s superintendent after several hours of discussion Tuesday night.
Kane served as interim superintendent for the district in 2016 and has worked in the district for 10 years as executive director of schools for American Academy charter schools. She was on of two finalists for the job. The other was Danny Winsor.. That move sparked protest from teachers and students.School board director Becky Myers highlighted Kane’s previous work with teachers and parents as a plus for the district.
“She’s done the job before,” Myers said. “She’s strong; she has a proven track record having done this position before. She knows what it will take to do this job. During her time as interim superintendent, she visited every school.” The school board is also in the middle of a lawsuit for allegedly violating the state’s open meeting law earlier this year.
Wow… BIG surprise.
