Next, they will start putting together the ad , which will be placed in papers on the 16th of October.

A special selection committee has been established,  Trustee Hall will  be the chairman of the committee.

There will be consultation  with all  manner of stakeholders, from teachers to each and every  community within the region.  It is expected  a short list of candidates will be ready by the 17th of November.
