JPPSS Seeks Community Input for Superintendent Interviews

The Jefferson Parish Public School System has received applications for superintendent. We are looking for questions that are important to you and your community for the superintendent candidates to answer. We are asking that you please share the following message with your civic group.

The Jefferson Parish Public School System (JPPSS) and the Jefferson Parish School Board (JPSB) are seeking the input of all stakeholders as we select a new superintendent. A JPPSS stakeholder is anyone who is impacted by the success of our district: students, teachers, staff, parents, extended family, business & community leaders, etc… If you live, work, or have a vested interest in the success of Jefferson Parish, we want your help.

The JPSB is holding a special meeting on Monday, March 5 for the superintendent candidates to answer questions from the board and from all JPPSS stakeholders. You can submit questions online at jpschools.org/SuperintendentSearch. Questions may also be hand delivered to the JPPSS Administration Building at 501 Manhattan Blvd. in Harvey or the Paul Emenes Building at 822 S. Clearview Pkwy. in Harahan. All questions must be submitted in writing. The deadline to submit questions is Friday, March 2 at 12 p.m.

This Special Session meeting will be held at the JPPSS Administration Building at 501 Manhattan Blvd. in Harvey at 6 p.m. If you have any questions about this process, please contact JPPSS Community Engagement Director Christie Gomez at christie.gomez@jppss.k12.la.us.
