FAIRMONT â The Marion County Board of Education will hold its first round of interviews with the five candidates for school superintendent on Wednesday and Thursday.
The new superintendent will succeed Superintendent Randy Farley who is retiring June 30 after serving in the position since July 1, 2019.
âOur plan is, hopefully, we can finish the interview process by next Thursday evening,â said MaryJo Thomas, school board president.
Two candidates are currently school superintendents in smaller counties, one is a current assistant superintendent in Harrison County and one is a Fairmont native currently serving as a high school principal. The only candidate currently working in Marion County Schools is Administrative Assistant Chad Norman.
