School Board: Dr. Jim Gunn Hired As Interim Superintendent


A man with 36 years in public education has been selected to be the interim superintendent for the South Shore Regional School Board. Dr. Jim Gunn has served as a superintendent of the Annapolis Valley Regional School Board for nine years until he retired in 2005. Before that, he was a principal for a decade. He will take over for Nancy Pynch-Worthylake, who has accepted a position with the Department of Education. Gunn says he's only in this for the short term.



He will join the board early next week until at least mid-July. A release from the school board says a request for proposal has been issued to look for a company to begin the search for a full-time superintendent.
