State gives St. Paul school board blessing for secret meetings
The members of the St. Paul school board realized they had a problem, starting with themselves.
So as they search for a new superintendent to replace the one they forced out, they will meet in secret to figure out how to get along better.
In September, the board approved a plan to engage the public in searching for a new schools chief. Board members are eager to get beyond the acrimony of the departure of Valeria Silva, the target of the newly elected “Caucus for Change” board majority that took over in January.
