Newark, MD, February 19, 2025–The search for a new Worcester County Superintendent of Schools was officially launched by the Board of Education at its February 11, 2025, meeting. The Board of Education contracted with the Maryland Association of Boards of Education (MABE), which will manage the process and conduct the search for qualified candidates.
In January, Superintendent Lou Taylor announced his intent to retire from the position at the conclusion of the current school year.
An integral part of MABE’s process is to seek public input on the leadership characteristics needed for qualified candidates. Input will assist MABE in developing a leadership profile, helping the organization match potential candidates with the leadership expectations of school system staff and Worcester County community members.
To that end, the Board of Education has launched online exchanges, which allow everyone to have a chance to share their perspectives and understand what’s most important to the Worcester County community.
To participate, any member of the community can go to https://tinyurl.com/WCPSSupt now through February 28, 2025.
