He has a proven commitment to this district and the board is very eager to work side-by-side with him as we strive to continue our pursuit of educational excellence in challenging times."
In accepting the appointment, Doig praised the district's workforce, noting: "In my years at Richard T.

The board unanimously approved Doig's appointment at a meeting January 28. His contract will run through June 30, 2020, and calls for an initial salary of $140,000.
