The Richardson ISD board of trustees picked law firm O’Hanlon, Demerath & Castillo to assist with the search for the district’s next superintendent during its April 19 meeting.
O’Hanlon, Demerath & Castillo was one of three search firms that did presentations for trustees on how they would go about assisting the district during a previous meeting April 13.
“I feel like they hear our community,” board President Regina Harris said of the firm. “I feel like they were actually a piece of RISD, and [that] is absolutely what we need right now.”
RISD interim Superintendent Tabitha Branum was appointed in December following the resignation of former Superintendent Jeannie Stone. Branum told Community Impact Newspaper earlier this year that she plans to apply for the permanent superintendent position when it is posted.
