The Williams Unified School District is on the search for a new governing board member, following news that Coconino County Superintendent of Schools, Cheryl Mango-Paget, is accepting applications for a vacancy that will hold office until the end of December 2026. The call for applicants was announced in a statement publicized on Monday.
Those looking to apply need to be registered voters in Arizona and have been domiciled in the boundaries of the school district for a minimum of one year before the appointment date. Candidates or their spouses are disqualified if they actively work for the district. It's important to quickly prepare to submit, as a first review of the submissions is set to quickly begin thirty days after the initial posting, which places the date on June 19, 2025. Applicants are reminded to submit their applications by the close of business on the aforementioned day.
Interested parties can find the application on the county’s website and have the option to submit it through a variety of mediums, by email at [email protected], via fax to 928-526-1469, or through the mail addressed to the Coconino County School Superintendent’s office. Regardless of how it is transmitted, a signed original copy of the application will be necessary. The district will continue to accept applications until the position is filled.
Forming part of the selection process may be an advisory committee comprising district residents and an existing board member, organized to interview candidates and provide insight to Superintendent Mango-Paget on the final appointment. This detail is extracted from the official CivicAlerts notification.
For additional details or answers to any questions, Stacy Fobar, the Program Coordinator for the Coconino County Superintendent of Schools office, is available at 928-679-8070 or through email correspondence at [email protected].
