The search for a Director of Teaching and Learning for Clinton schools is underway and it's part of a plan for the leadership structure of the district after Superintendent Curt Nettles retires.

On the WHOW Morning Show Tuesday, Nettles told Regional Radio the new position will be the right arm to new Superintendent Drew Goebbel.

Nettles indicates they have about 15 individuals interested in the job but told the Board of Education Tuesday night at its March meeting, there are five or six they are very impressed with.

Nettles hopes to have the process wrapped up and a recommendation for the Board of Education at its April Board meeting.
