Prosper ISD trustees will meet at 7 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 21, to vote on hiring Greg Bradley as superintendent and approving his contract, according to a special meeting agenda the district posted Thursday.
The vote is the only action item on the agenda, which also includes a public comment period for registered speakers. The meeting will be held in the Prosper ISD Board Room at 605 E. Seventh St.
The board voted unanimously on Sept. 30 to name Bradley the lone finalist. State law requires a 21-day wait between that announcement and a formal hire, and Wednesday is the first day the board could act.
How the search unfolded
A background memo attached to the agenda traces the search back to the retirement of former Superintendent Holly Ferguson. Trustees heard pitches from search firms on April 20 and voted 7-0 on May 18 to hire Impact Education Specialists. On May 26, the board made Deputy Superintendent Bill McLaughlin acting superintendent for the length of the search.
The firm built a profile of the desired leader from a community survey and input sessions with teachers, parents, students, staff and residents, and presented a search timeline to the board at a June 17 work session. First-round interviews took place in September.
