| C. | preparation of informative material describing this Corporation and its educational goals; | |
| D. | consideration of all applicants fairly without discrimination on the basis of race, gender, age, religion, ethnic background, disability, or other condition unrelated to the position of Superintendent. |
No person may be employed as Superintendent of this Corporation unless s/he has signed an employment contract with the Board.
