With Dr. Kent Scribner set to step down as Fort Worth ISD's Superintendent at the end of August, the search is on for his successor, and the district is asking for input from stakeholders.
Fort Worth ISD says that "parents, employees, students, faith leaders, partners, civic groups, and other community leaders" are all encouraged to fill out the survey.
"We want to hear from everyone – through the survey and the in-person events. We want the participation of every person who supports and cares about our students and who have partnered with us to improve academic outcomes for all," FWISD Board President Tobi Jackson said, per the release. "This is an opportunity to make your voice heard – and we are eager to listen."
According to a release from the district, an online survey will be available from May 9-27th. This survey will allow participants to make their feelings known on the characteristics they'd like Scribner's replacement to possess.
Also, in-person events will be held the week of May 16th at district high schools where further information can be gathered. Employees will also be able to attend events at other locations.
