At the May 30 special meeting, the Peoria Unified Governing Board voted 5-0 to extend the role of the interim superintendent, Linda Palles Thompson, until a new superintendent is appointed. The board has contracted with McPherson & Jacobsen to conduct the nationwide search, which will resume in the fall of 2018. A revised timeline is expected to be released and will be available on the district’s website before the start of the new school year.
