Members of the Escambia County School Board met on Thursday to put a plan in place to interview candidates for the superintendent position with the county school system.

Following advice from board attorney Broox Garrett, the plan is that each board member will ask two questions of the candidates. That interview will follow a full day of touring county schools for each candidate.

The public interviews will be conducted on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, July 26, 27 and 28 and will be held at Flomaton High School’s auditorium. Two interviews will be conducted each evening at 6 and 8 p.m.

The six set to be interviewed next week include:

Gary K. Glass – a resident of Kinston, he currently serves as a principal in the Monroe County School system;

Michele M. McClung – a resident of Mobile, she currently serves as director of teaching, learning and assessment for the Mobile County Public Schools Board of Education;

Dr. Sandra Reid – a resident of Brewton, she currently serves as assistant superintendent for the Escambia County Board of Education;

Wade Shipman – a resident of Tallassee, he currently serves as superintendent at the Tallassee City Board of Education;

Dr. Barbarietta Turner – a resident of Monroeville, she currently serves as director of student services for the Monroe County Board of Education; and

Dr. Stephen “Clay” Webber – a resident of Albertville, he currently serves as a principal in the Marshall County Board of Education system.
