In the News: superintendent search starts over; Downtown Partnership considering goals for 2017

From the Milford Daily News, articles of interest for Franklin:

"The School Committee will once again seek candidates for its superintendent position. 
The committee voted unanimously Tuesday night to reopen its search, opting not to select either remaining finalist as its preferred candidate. 
Committee Chairman Kevin O'Malley opened the meeting by giving a history of the search process. He said two candidates, Weymouth Assistant Superintendent Susan Kustka and Blackstone-Millville Assistant Superintendent David Thomson, remained. A third finalist, Chelmsford Assistant Superintendent Linda Hirsch, had announced her intention to remain in her current position.

She suggested that because the partnership receives many calls inquiring about available commercial space in town, it place an inventory of such locations on its website."
