Frederick County Hires Firm To Find Superintendent

FREDERICK, Md. (AP) -- The Frederick County Board of Education has chosen a firm to search for a new public schools superintendent.

The board voted this week to hire Hazard, Young, Attea and Associates, a large executive search firm serving public school districts, at a cost of $25,000 plus expenses.

Current Superintendent Linda Burgee is retiring on July 1 from the post she has held since 2004.

School board President Brad Young says the board will meet Monday to begin mapping out the selection process.
