"Your
ability to contact a large area for applicants and research the
references provided was very helpful. Coordinating the
information from the
various groups in the community and school was helpful and
created a feeling of ownership in the final decision. This
should prove
to be a positive place to start this new relationship." |

Board Member,

committed to the whole process from beginning to end. Your
research and preparation of information on the candidates was
above and beyond my expectations. I was very pleased with the
time you took to involve staff, students, and community. Thank
you for a job well done!! It was money well spent." |

"The entire process is tremendous! The process involves
everyone, tends to pull everyone together and is handled
very professionally. The process is tremendously beneficial
to our school, community, and our superintendent candidates.
They truly have an interview that enables them to really get
to know our school/community and base their decision on an
overall impression. This is a great start to a new
superintendent/school relationship. This process made us
look good at very step--Thank you!!" |

a very labor intensive procedure that takes a particular knowledge
that most boards don't have."

the legwork! I certainly did not have the time to sift, sort,
check, double-check, etc. I certainly appreciated that they
solicited quality candidates! The consultants were un-biased,
and were great resources. They stayed neutral throughout the
process. Extremely professional. Highly recommend!" |

find and screen personnel." |

"Everything worked so well together.
When you got done with one step, the next step almost fell
right into place. I felt this worked well because of the number
of candidates. We got positive feedback from the teachers
and community. I would recommend this to any school district
if they want to get the BEST person out there. I am very happy
that I had the chance to work with McPherson & Jacobson
on our superintendent search. Keep up the good work."

the board's choice." |

we could not have otherwise had."
