[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He probably worked for a search firm that hires out interim heads. They send people in essentially as "fixers" for a year to right the ship when a head leaves under messy circumstances and the school is undergoing a search for a new HOS. The interim is not applying for the permanent role. It's not unusual for former heads to do this for a few years before retirement. The person I know who did this was an empty nester and enjoyed it because it was well paying and allowed him and his wife to leave in a new city for a year.[/quote] I wish our school had done this instead of having an internal interim head. When the new head started, the fixes were more well overdue and I think their tenure got tainted by the messes they had to clean up. [/quote]
