3 CMS board members who voted to keep Hill get key role in next superintendent pick
Three Charlotte-Mecklenburg school board members who voted against firing former Superintendent Crystal Hill will now help lead the search for her replacement. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education announced Wednesday that Anna London, Cynthia Stone, Monty Witherspoon and board Chair Gregory “Dee” Rankin will serve on its Superintendent Search Ad Hoc Committee.
