Henry Defends Finalists

The words "this is getting way too complicated" spring to mind...

From Chattanoogan.com:

County Commission Chairman Larry Henry on Thursday defended the three out-of-state finalists for Hamilton County school superintendent.

"I can tell you this without reservation - we have three good candidates," he told fellow members of the commission.

Commissioner Charlotte Vandergriff said commissioners should stay out of the selection process.

"I certainly hope that the current personal, contentious political climate regarding the school superintendent selection does not cause all candidates to withdraw. It begs the question of why one would want to be here. t does nothing to create unity, which is what we say we are seeking. We need to let those charged with this responsibility to do their job independently as we did ours this morning (in filling the commission seat vacated by William Cotton)."
