WHILE THE PLAN IS TO HIRE A NEW APS SUPERINTENDENT BY THIS SPRING, ONE SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER THINKS THAT DECISION SHOULD BE DELAYED. MARTY ESQUIVEL TELLS 770 KKOB HE'D LIKE TO SEE INTERIM SUPERINTENDENT BRAD WINTER STAY ON THE JOB FOR ANOTHER YEAR. HE SAYS WINTER GOT THE DISTRICT THROUGH THE CHAOS OF WINSTON BROOKS' DEPARTURE LAST YEAR. HE SAYS WINTER HAS BROUGHT STABILITY DURING HIS TIME AS INTERIM SUPERINTDENT, AND HAS CONTINUED TO BRIDGE GAPS, AND BUILD RELATIONSHIPS FOR APS.
WINTER SAID DURING A COMMUNITY FORUM THIS WEEK THAT HE'D RATHER NOT CONTINUE AS INTERIM SUPERINTENDENT…BUT WILL HELP WITH THE TRANSITION AFTER A NEW SUPERINTENDENT IS HIRED.
