Carol Stroker, a director on the Hazelwood Board of Education for more than five years, announced her resignation from the board during the Nov. 24^th board meeting. She is planning to run for the Hazelwood City Council.

“After much thought and reflection, I have decided to resign to pursue another elected position with a different organization,” she said. “Because I have thoroughly enjoyed my colleagues on the board, the administration, HSD staff members, community members and students, this was a very difficult decision for me to make. However, I would like to use my experiences in public service to help a different agency.”

After the board accepted Stroker’s resignation, board president Mark Behlmann  announced that the board will fill the vacancy as soon as possible to ensure the new director can participate in interviews for the new superintendent, which will begin in December. He announced that the following “Notice of Vacancy” has been posted:
