Anonymous job searches and hidden processes are antithetical to low-bias recruiting and hiring. More transparency, partner-engagement, clear lines of accountability and articulated, visible, known selection criteria are fundamental to equitable hiring that mitigates selection bias and maximizes community input and investment.

The Board absolutely has an opportunity, and obligation, to be more equitable and transparent in their next hiring process.

This is how I feel about the contract award process too. We want to give contracts to companies owned by women, black and brown folks? Great! Let's open it to ALL those people, not just the ones who happen to be personal friends with the superintendent. This process is severly anti-equity.
