Ed Board Member Resigns to Pursue District General Counsel Job
Grand Junction, Colorado’s “School District 51 Board of Education member John Williams resigned from the board Wednesday to pursue a job as the district’s general counsel,” reports Dan West in The Daily Sentinel.
“Williams said he remained on the board through his initial application process, but he was asked to interview for the job, at which point he decided he had to step down from the board.”
“Williams, who has served as general counsel for other organizations in the past, said the district would be conducting interviews for the position today. He said one of his main concerns in pursuing the general counsel role was that it might appear that the district was not being fair in the hiring process.”
