MIDLOTHIAN - Robin Bullock, working for Midlothian Independent School District
since 2000, was named the interim superintendent by the board of trustees during
a special called meeting on Monday, Nov. 30.
J.D. Kennedy, acting superintendent, gave his letter of resignation to the board
during the same meeting.
"It is a mixture of emotions that I request board approval of my resignation as
superintendent of schools for Midlothian ISD effective Dec. 31, 2009," stated
Kennedy.
Kennedy is the lone finalist for McKinney ISD's superintendent position
effective Jan. 1.
"If contract negotiations with McKinney ISD fail, then this resignation request
will be null and void and the current contract with Midlothian ISD will continue
to remain in effect," stated Kennedy in his letter to the board.
Bullock received her Masters of Science in Secondary Education from Troy State
University in Alabama, earned Educational Administration certification and
Superintendent certification through The University of Texas at Arlington and
received a Bachelor of Arts in Secondary English Education from Northwestern
State University in Louisiana.
The school board is currently in the process of hiring a superintendent search
firm to assist in hiring a new superintendent.
