The Del Mar Union School District has received nineteen applications for the position of Principal at the Del Mar Hills Academy. First round interviews are scheduled for Wednesday, October 15. The interview panel will consist of staff members and parents from Del Mar Hills Academy; the panel will also include two principals of other schools in the Del Mar Union School District and two district-level administrators.

The first round interviews will identify two or three candidates to move forward to a second round interview. The second round interviews will be conducted on October 17 by district Superintendent Sharon McClain, Assistant Superintendent Janet Bernard, and Director of Human Resources, Rodger Smith. Following a thorough check of references and a visit to the final candidate’s place of work, it is anticipated the new principal will be appointed by the Board of Trustees on October 22. The date of arrival at the Del Mar Hills Academy of the new principal will depend on when the current employer is willing to release him/her to begin their work in Del Mar.
