Dr. Atwater has done a fine job on behalf of the Kenai Peninsula, and while we would be very sorry to see him go, we certainly wish him well. Operations of the school district will continue without interruption until such time as a final decision is made in Anchorage, and then the KPBSD School Board will respond to whatever that decision may be. At this point, Dr. Atwater remains under contract to the Kenai Peninsula and will remain welcome to continue that relationship should he not be offered, or accept, the Anchorage Superintendent position.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In a press release on December 15, 2011, the Anchorage School District announced: \u201cThe Anchorage school board reviewed more than 150 applications, containing more than 1,600 pages of candidate information. The two finalists, Atwater and Browder, will each participate in a three-day on-site visit in early January to continue the interview process, learn more about the district, speak with staff and students, and meet members of the community.\u201d<br \/>\n<strong>Links<\/strong><br \/>\nKPBSD Press Release:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.kpbsd.k12.ak.us\/communications.aspx?id=22096\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">KPBSD Superintendent Steve Atwater named as Anchorage finalist<br \/>\nKenai Peninsula Borough School District<\/a> website<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.asdk12.org\/school_board\/superintendent_search\/index.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Anchorage School District Superintendent Search<\/a><br \/>\nE-mail Mr. Joe Arness, School Board President: <a href=\"mailto:JArness@KPBSD.k12.ak.us\">JArness@KPBSD.k12.ak.us<\/a><br \/>\nContact: Pegge Erkeneff, Communications Specialist<br \/>\nKenai Peninsula Borough School District<br \/>\nPhone: (907) 714-8888<br \/>\nFax: (907) 262-5867<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:Pegge@kpbsd.org\">Pegge@kpbsd.org<\/a>\u00a0<br \/>\n148 N.
