HR Schools Superintendent Finalist Named

The Hood River County School District has selected a finalist for its superintendent’s position.  The district announced Tuesday that Dr. Sara Hahn-Huston is their lone finalist after interviewing four candidates on Monday.  Hahn-Huston is currently the executive director of secondary education at Gresham-Barlow School District, where she has worked since 2015.  She has nearly three decades experience as an educator, including 10 years as a teacher and experience as a principal in dual-language schools.  District board vice-chair Rich Truax says they were excited about Hahn-Huston’s success in diverse, multi-lingual, multicultural school communities.  The district has scheduled two meet-and-greet sessions this Monday for community members to ask questions and submit feedback.  The first will be from 3:30 to 4:30 at Wy’east Middle School, followed up with another session from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Hood River County School District board room.
